I've got a text file with some French verbs in:
accepter – to accept
adorer – to adore
aimer – to like
annuler – to cancel
apporter – to bring
I've got a Python file which will open this file, read it and generate some random questions about conjugating those verbs to the present tense:
from tkinter import *
from tkinter import ttk
from definitions import *
from random import *
def check_conjugation(*args):
answer_given = str(answer.get())
correct_answer = present_tense_regular(random_verb, random_pronoun)
def unaccent(word):
output = ""
for x in word:
english_letters = [y for y in "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz"]
accents = [y for y in "àâáçèéêëìíîòóôùúû"]
replacements = [y for y in "aaaceeeeiiiooouuu"]
if x in english_letters:
output += x
else:
for y in range(len(accents)):
if x == accents[y]:
output += replacements[y]
break
return output
unaccented_answer_given = unaccent(answer_given)
unaccented_correct_answer = unaccent(correct_answer)
if answer_given == correct_answer:
decision.set("That is correct, well done!")
next_button.focus()
fr_conj_present.bind('<Return>', set_new_pair)
elif unaccented_answer_given == unaccented_correct_answer:
decision.set(
"""You have conjugated correctly, well done!
However there were missing accents in your typed answer.
The correct answer was %s""" % correct_answer)
next_button.focus()
fr_conj_present.bind('<Return>', set_new_pair)
else:
decision.set("That is not correct. Try again.")
list_of_verbs = []
with open("french_regular_verbs.txt", 'r') as file:
for line in file:
verb = ""
for letter in line:
if letter == " ":
break
else:
verb += letter
list_of_verbs.append(verb)
number_of_verbs = len(list_of_verbs)
def new_pair():
global random_pronoun
global random_verb
random_number = randint(0,number_of_verbs - 1)
random_verb = list_of_verbs[random_number]
random_pronoun = ["je", "tu", "il", "vous", "nous", "ils"][randint(0,5)]
return ((random_verb, random_pronoun))
def set_new_pair(*args):
question_text.set("Conjugate the verb '%s' to the pronoun '%s' in the present tense:" % new_pair())
decision.set("")
conjugation.focus()
fr_conj_present.bind('<Return>', check_conjugation)
def present_tense_conjugate():
global mainframe, fr_conj_present, answer, decision, next_button, conjugation, question_text, number_of_verbs, list_of_verbs

list_of_verbs.append(verb)
number_of_verbs = len(list_of_verbs)
new_pair()
fr_conj_present = Tk()
fr_conj_present.title("Conjugating verbs")
mainframe = ttk.Frame(fr_conj_present, padding="3 3 12 12")
mainframe.grid(column=0, row=0, sticky=(N, W, E, S))
fr_conj_present.columnconfigure(0, weight=1)
fr_conj_present.rowconfigure(0, weight=1)
answer = StringVar()
decision = StringVar()
decision.set("")
question_text = StringVar()
question_text.set("Conjugate the verb '%s' to the pronoun '%s' in the present tense:" % new_pair())
ttk.Label(mainframe, textvariable=question_text).grid(column=1, row=1)

conjugation.grid(column=1, row=2, sticky=(W, E))
ttk.Label(mainframe, textvariable=decision).grid(column=1,row=3, sticky=(W, E))
ttk.Button(mainframe, text="Check", command=check_conjugation).grid(column=2,row=2)
next_button = ttk.Button(mainframe, text="Next", command=set_new_pair)
next_button.grid(column=2,row=3)
for child in mainframe.winfo_children():
child.grid_configure(padx=5, pady=5)
conjugation.focus()
fr_conj_present.bind('<Return>', check_conjugation)
fr_conj_present.mainloop()
And I've got another program, which is supposed to be the main window from which the first function is called:
from tkinter import *
from tkinter import ttk
import french_present_conjugate
def french_appear():
l2_text.set("You have chosen French. What would you like to do next?")
b4.grid(row=2, column=2)
master = Tk()
master.title('MRL Languages')
master.geometry("700x500")
l1 = ttk.Label(master, text="Choose a langugage:")
l1.grid(row=1, column=1, pady=20)
b1 = ttk.Button(master, text="French\nFrancais", command=french_appear)
b1.grid(row=2, column=1, sticky=W, padx = 25, pady=5)
b2 = ttk.Button(master, text="German\nDeutsch")
b2.grid(row=3, column=1, sticky=W, padx = 25, pady=5)
b3 = ttk.Button(master, text="Russian\nРусскйи")
b3.grid(row=4, column=1, sticky=W, padx = 25, pady=5)
l2_text = StringVar()
l2_text.set("Please select a language from the left for more options.")
l2 = ttk.Label(master, textvariable=l2_text)
l2.grid(row=1, column=2, padx=25, pady=20)
b4 = ttk.Button(master,
text="Conjugate verbs to present tense",
command=french_present_conjugate.present_tense_conjugate)
mainloop()
But whenever I run the main window (the third block of code above) and choose "French" then "Conjugate verbs to present tense" it opens the window but without any questions etc:
When it should look like:
Any idea what I'm doing wrong?
