Syntax error for "root = Tk()" - dlwaddel - Jan-25-2024

I get a syntax error for "root = Tk()" and can't figure it out. I am running Python 3.12 under Windows 11. Here is the code:

>>> from tkinter import*
>>> import tkinter.filedialog, os, time, socket, binascii
>>>
>>> UDP_PORT = 50000
>>> sock = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_DGRAM)
>>>
>>> # ----------------------------------
>>> #    User Interface
>>> #------------------------------------
>>> def close():
...     sock.close()
...     root.destroy()
...     root.quit()
...
... root = Tk()
File "<stdin>", line 6
    root = Tk()
    ^^^^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
>>> root.title('Bootloader 2.1')
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
NameError: name 'root' is not defined

I am not a Python programmer, so have looked around. All instances I found show root = Tk() working just fine. Help will be appreciated!

Update!
I discovered that copying the program text and pasting it into the interpreter was causing the error. When I opened the file in a Python shell and ran it, the error does not occur. Duh!

RE: Syntax error for "root = Tk()" - deanhystad - Jan-25-2024

Why are you typing a program in the python interactive interpreter instead of writing it to a file? Stop doing that. You can use any text editor to create a Python program. Save the file with a .py extension. Run the program by calling python followed by the program filename. You can also install a Python IDE like PyCharm or VSCode that makes it easier to write and run Python programs.

This code maked Python thing there is a global variable named "root" that is referenced in the function close().

>>> def close():
... sock.close()
... root.destroy()
... root.quit()

When you enter this like it is indented at the same level as the prior lines, so Python thinks it is also part of function close().

... root = Tk()

This line is in conflict with root.destroy() and root.quit(). By assigning root = Tk() inside the function you are declaring root as a local variable that only exists inside of close(). However lines that use the value of root appear before the assignment. You cannot use a variable before it is assigned, so Python says "SyntaxError".

Thanks for the reply. I am not typing into the interpreter. I copied the text from a text editor and pasted it into the interpreter.
If I understand correctly, the root=Tk() is in the wrong place. In the original text, the root statement is not indented. Am I correct so far?

Why are you doing that?

Because I did not know any better. I am not a Python user. First try at doing anything, and working with an already written .pyw file that is supposed to talk to a piece of equipment over the network but does not.

RE: Syntax error for "root = Tk()" - deanhystad - Jan-26-2024

Can you post the code? What evidence do you have leading you to think it does not work? How do you run the code normally?

On windows, a .pyw file is usually run by double clicking on the file. The "w" in the extension tells python to not open a shell window. Remove the "w" and your program will open two windows (cmd or powershell and the tkinter window). As you discovered, you can also run the program by passing the program file name as an argument when starting python (python myprogram.py).

I remove Python 2 from my computer and reinstalled Python 3.12.1. The converted program will now run from command line and from double-click, but will not talk to the radio.

To shorten this story a bit, after you started asking about why I was typing into the interpreter, I looked around a bit more and found the IDLE. That brought up a shell. Using the shell to open the file, rather than copy and paste from Notepad, the program will run, just still will not talk to the radio. The shell does not report any errors until I click the "Test" button to verify connectivity with the radio. When the "Test" button is clicked, the shell reports an error:

Error:Exception in Tkinter callback

                        ~~~~~~~^~~~~~~~~~~
TypeError: can't concat str to bytes

This will not mean much without the code.

I have attempted to attach the file. If that did not work, I can post it in a reply or as an e-mail.[attachment=2727]

RE: Syntax error for "root = Tk()" - deanhystad - Jan-27-2024

IDLE is problematic. It gets installed with Python and it isn't a horrible development environment, but there is enough difference between how python runs a program and how IDLE runs a program that I don't use IDLE for anything anymore.

Your error message says you are trying to combine bytes and a str. You cannot do that. You could in Python 2.7, but strings are no longer limited to 8bit characters. Programs that used strings to talk to devices now have to use bytes or byte arrays instead of strings. My guess is the code is trying to pad a message with zeros.

Don't attach the file, paste the code in your post.

RE: Syntax error for "root = Tk()" - dlwaddel - Jan-27-2024

Sounds like I need to convert the strings to bytes. Don't know how, yet.

Hope I did that right this time!
If you search for "MESSAGE = bytearray" you will find multiple instances of the same problem.

RE: Syntax error for "root = Tk()" - deanhystad - Jan-27-2024

This appears to work

# This is the test message
MESSAGE = b'MAC' + bytes([0]*29)
print(MESSAGE, "\n")

# This is the reset message
MESSAGE = b'RES' + bytes([0]*29)
print(MESSAGE, "\n")

# This is the change IP messge
ip_1 = '192'
ip_2 = '168'
ip_3 = '0'
ip_4 = '168'
MESSAGE = b'WIP' + bytes([0]*29) + bytes([int(ip_1), int(ip_2), int(ip_2), int(ip_4)])
print(MESSAGE, "\n")


# These messages were in write_clicked()
slot = [1, 2, 3]  # For testing need a slot list
MESSAGE = b'ERS' +  bytes([0]*28) + bytes([slot[-1]])
print(MESSAGE, "\n")

rbf = bytes(range(256))  # This is read from a file in real program.
MESSAGE = b'WPD' + bytes([0]*29) + rbf
print(MESSAGE)
