Python Random Jokes Generator with GUI – Tkinter Tutorial
In this tutorial, we will create a simple Python program that generates random jokes and displays them in a graphical user interface (GUI) using the Tkinter library.
First, make sure you have Tkinter installed. If you don’t have it installed, you can install it using the following command:
pip install tk
Next, let’s create a Python script that generates random jokes:
import tkinter as tk
import random
jokes = ['Why was the math book sad? Because it had too many problems.',
'How do you organize a space party? You planet.',
'Why couldn’t the bicycle find its way home? It lost its bearings.',
'What do you get when you cross a snowman and a vampire? Frostbite.']
def generate_joke():
joke = random.choice(jokes)
joke_label.config(text=joke)
root = tk.Tk()
root.title("Random Jokes Generator")
joke_label = tk.Label(root, text="", wraplength=300)
joke_label.pack(pady=20)
button = tk.Button(root, text="Generate Joke", command=generate_joke)
button.pack(pady=10)
root.mainloop()
Save the script as jokes_generator.py and run it in your terminal. You should see a window displaying a random joke each time you click the “Generate Joke” button.
That’s it! You have successfully created a Python random jokes generator with a GUI using the Tkinter library.
Feel free to customize the jokes list and the GUI design to make it your own!
Nice!
