Initial Combobox Value for Boolean Displays as 1 Instead of True

I am learning tkinter and wrote some test code for combobox, but the initial display does not match my expectation.
Here is the code.
#!python3
r""" combobox.py
https://tkdocs.com/tutorial/widgets.html#combobox
"""
from tkinter import *
from tkinter import ttk
root = Tk()
root.title("Combobox")
s = StringVar(value="On") # default value is ''
b = BooleanVar(value=True) # default is False
i = IntVar(value=10) # default is 0
d = DoubleVar(value=10.5) # default is 0.0
def comboboxSelected(*args):
print("comboboxSelected({})".format(args))
print(" s = {}".format(s.get()))
cs.selection_clear()
print(" b = {}".format(b.get()))
cb.selection_clear()
print(" i = {}".format(i.get()))
ci.selection_clear()
print(" d = {}".format(d.get()))
cd.selection_clear()
cs = ttk.Combobox(root, textvariable=s)
cs.bind('<<ComboboxSelected>>', comboboxSelected)
cs['values'] = ('On', 'Off')
cs.grid()
cb = ttk.Combobox(root, textvariable=b)
cb.bind('<<ComboboxSelected>>', comboboxSelected)
cb['values'] = (True, False)
cb.grid()
ci = ttk.Combobox(root, textvariable=i)
ci.bind('<<ComboboxSelected>>', comboboxSelected)
ci['values'] = (10, 1)
ci.grid()
cd = ttk.Combobox(root, textvariable=d)
cd.bind('<<ComboboxSelected>>', comboboxSelected)
cd['values'] = (10.5, 2.3)
cd.grid()
root.mainloop()
The initial display looks has a 1 in the boolean's combobox.
After I select, it displays as expected.
Why is it displaying as 1 on initial load and is there anything I can do to make it show as True instead?

UnboundLocalError: local variable 'qn' referenced before assignment

I'm getting the error "UnboundLocalError: local variable 'qn' referenced before assignment" on running the code. Why is that? How can I correct it? I'm new to tkinter so please try to keep it simple.

You can see in this particular section that you have called on 'qn' before it was even defined:
#function to display question and variables
def qn_func(self,qn_num) :
Game.clear(self)
#accessing the questions
q_file = StringIO(qn)
#reading the question, options, next qn numbers and the character name from the file
qn_list = q_file.readlines()
qn = qn_list[qn_num-1].strip().split("$")[1]
The variable needs to be assigned a value before being used. Here, you call q_file = StringIO(qn) before you have defined qn = qn_list....

Python Pygments color error

I've been trying to make a simple text pad with syntax highlighting for python. but the problem is when i open quote a string ad pt the closing quote, the text are the quotes doesn't change back, here's how it looks:
here is my current code:
from tkinter import * # All from Tkinter
# =============================================================================
class vwin():
def __init__(self,args,master=None):
if type(args[3]) == type(self):
self.window = Toplevel(args[3].window)
elif args[3].lower() == 'tk':
self.window = Tk()
self.window.title(args[0])
self.window.geometry(args[1])
self.window.state(args[2])
def mainloop():
self.window.mainloop()
class customtext:
def __init__(self,master):
import tkinter.scrolledtext as scrolltxt
self.textarea = scrolltxt.ScrolledText(master)
self.textarea.configure(bg = "#555555",
insertbackground = "#dddddd",
font = "Courier 14 bold",
tabs = 40,
foreground="#dddddd")
self.textarea.pack(fill = BOTH, expand = True)
# TAGS ----------------------------------------------------------------

self.textarea.mark_set("range_start", "1.0")

for token, content in lex(data, PythonLexer()):
self.textarea.mark_set("range_end",
"range_start + %dc" % len(content))
self.textarea.tag_add(str(token), "range_start", "range_end")
self.textarea.mark_set("range_start", "range_end")
def stat_title(self,event=None):
ind = self.textarea.index(INSERT)
root.window.title('VenomPad Mini' + "[Index:" + str(ind) + "]")
def select_all(self,event):
self.textarea.tag_add(SEL, "1.0", END)
self.textarea.mark_set(INSERT, "1.0")
self.textarea.see(INSERT)

Tagging a range inside another range, doesn't shorten the range.
The simplest thing I could think of would be to remove the existing tags before adding the tags:
def highlight(self,event=None):
...
data = self.textarea.get("1.0", "end-1c")
# Remove the existing tags from textarea
for tag in self.textarea.tag_names():
self.textarea.tag_remove(tag, "1.0", "end")
for token, content in lex(data, PythonLexer()):
self.textarea.mark_set("range_end",
"range_start + %dc" % len(content))
self.textarea.tag_add(str(token), "range_start", "range_end")
self.textarea.mark_set("range_start", "range_end")
...

Entries in Tkinter

I'd like to make a program which takes an integer from user and makes as many entries in a Tkinkter window. Then It'll make a graph base on them but for now I do not know how to make as many entries in my window. I tried something like this below but It does not work. Please help.. edit: oh and It's PyDev for Eclipse python 2.75
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
#import matplotlib.pyplot as mp
import Tkinter as T, sys
def end():
sys.exit()
def check():
z = e.get()
try:
z = int(z)
e.config(bg = 'green')
e.after(1000, lambda: e.config(bg = 'white'))
x = []
for i in (0,z):
x.append(e = T.Entry(main, justify = 'center'))
x[i].pack()
except:
e.config(bg = 'red')
e.after(1000, lambda: e.config(bg = 'white'))
z = 0
main = T.Tk()
main.title('something')
main.geometry('600x600')
main.config(bg = "#3366ff")
e = T.Entry(main,justify = 'center')
l = T.Label(main,text = 'Give me an N =',bg = '#3366ff')
b1 = T.Button(main, text = 'OK', command = check)
b = T.Button(main,text = 'Zakończ', command = end)
l.pack()
e.pack()
b1.pack()
b.pack()
main.mainloop()

Make youre for-loop look like this:
for i in range(0,z):
x.append( T.Entry(main, justify = 'center'))
x[i].pack()
you need to use range because when you dont it is only iterating through twice because it thinks its iterationg through a 2 item tuple instead of a list of numbers
also get rid of the e = so that it is just appending a new entry each time

Python sqlite3, tkinter display multible rows

I am new to python and recently i make dictionary using Python and Sqlite3 with tkinter.
When I run the code it returns multiple line in IDLE but in the GUI its only display the last result. I would like to display all the information in the GUI. Thanks you for any help and suggestion.

class Dictionary:
def __init__(self,master =None):
self.main_window = tkinter.Tk()
self.main_window.title("Lai Mirang Dictionary")
self.main_window.minsize( 600,400)
self.main_window.configure(background = 'paleturquoise')
self.frame1 = tkinter.Frame()
self.frame2= tkinter.Frame(bg = 'red')
self.frame3 =tkinter.Text( foreground = 'green')
self.frame4 = tkinter.Text()
self.lai_label = tkinter.Label(self.frame1,anchor ='nw',font = 'Times:12', text = 'Lai',width =25,borderwidth ='3',fg='blue')
self.mirang_label = tkinter.Label(self.frame1,anchor ='ne',font = 'Times:12', text = 'Mirang',borderwidth ='3',fg ='blue')
self.lai_label.pack(side='left')
self.mirang_label.pack(side = 'left')
self.kawl_buttom= tkinter.Button(self.frame2 ,fg = 'red',font = 'Times:12',text ='Kawl',command=self.dic,borderwidth ='3',)

self.lai_entry.focus_force()
self.lai_entry.bind('<Return>', self.dic,)
self.lai_entry.configure(background = 'khaki')
self.lai_entry.pack(side='left')
self.kawl_buttom.pack(side = 'left')
self.value = tkinter.StringVar()
self.mirang_label= tkinter.Label(self.frame3,font = 'Times:12',fg = 'blue',textvariable = self.value,justify = 'left',wraplength ='260',width = 30, height = 15,anchor = 'nw')
self.mirang_label.pack()
self.mirang_label.configure(background = 'seashell')
self.copyright_label = tkinter.Label(self.frame4,anchor ='nw',font = 'Times:12:bold',text = "copyright # cchristoe#gmail.com",width = 30,borderwidth = 3, fg = 'purple',)
self.copyright_label.pack()

kawl = kawl + '%'
c.execute("SELECT * FROM laimirang WHERE lai LIKE ?", (kawl,))
c.fetchall
for member in c:
out = (member)
self.value.set(out)
print(out, )
dic=Dictionary()

You need to change:
c.execute("SELECT * FROM laimirang WHERE lai LIKE ?", (kawl,))
c.fetchall
for member in c:
out = (member)
self.value.set(out)
print(out, )
To:
for member in c.execute("SELECT * FROM laimirang WHERE lai LIKE ?", (kawl,)):
current_text = self.value.get()
new_text = current_text +( "\n" if current_text else "") +" ".join(member)
self.value.set(new_text)
The new version gets the current value of the StringVar value and then appends the results returned with a space inbetween for each row returned with each row on its own line. What you were doing however involved just updating the StringVar to be the current member object, and therefore it only ever had the last values.
This is how it looks with more than one line:
