Printing images from a list - Heyjoe - Jun-21-2020
I am just starting to learn Python. I have written this simple program to print the employee number, employee name and a picture of the employee by giving the program the employee number. Where it says "Henrys Picture", I would want an actual photograph of Henry.
My first question is can you put a picture or image into a list?
If possible I would like to put 100 pictures into my Python program, without accessing external picture files.
Is this possible or would I have to have the program load a jpeg or tif file?
Any thing to get me started would be greatly appreciated.
employee = [[0,"Joe","Joes pic"],[1,"Henry","Henrys picture"],[2,"Joan","Joans picture"]] print(employee[1])

Maybe a more experienced person can correct me but, I don't think that is possible. You will have to load an image file from a folder. Whether it be converted to a binary or some other means. How do you plan to display the information?

I would display it.
Employee Number Employee Name Photograph
1..........................................Henry ......

Are you going to use a gui like tkinter, pyqt5, or some other gui?
RE: Printing images from a list - Heyjoe - Jun-22-2020
I just heard of the program tkinter the other day and am not familar with Gui's since most of the programming I did was in Excel Visual Basic for Applications.
Tkinter is probably something I will use since my program will be constantly calling for input from the user.
I want to make a self executable file of my program and an article I read said this is possible with Tkinter.
So I guess the answer is yes.
