This program, example1.py: > from tkinter import * > > root = Tk() > canvas = Canvas() > canvas.pack() > > root.mainloop()
and this one, example2.py: > from tkinter import * > > canvas = Canvas() > canvas.pack() > > mainloop() do exactly the same thing, as far as I can tell. Yet, most examples I find on the net use the first form. Why? I must be missing something, but I can't figure what is the utility of root. Can you help?
