Why does python show up error that name tk is not defined?

Question

I was trying to built a small window with tkitner and it showed up this error

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "E:\education\python\example .py", line 3, in <module>
    master = TK()
NameError: name 'TK' is not defined

from tkinter import *

master = TK()
master.mainloop()

It's not TK(), its Tk() (Small k).
Also, using from ... import * is dangerous and should be avoided.
