Write a Python GUI program to add an image (e.g., a logo) to a Tkinter window.

Sample Solution:

Python Code:

import tkinter as tk
from PIL import Image, ImageTk

# Create the main window
parent = tk.Tk()
parent.title("Image in Tkinter")

# Load and display an image 
#(replace 'your_logo.png' with the path to your image file)
image = Image.open('w3r_logo.png')
image = ImageTk.PhotoImage(image)

# Create a label to display the image
image_label = tk.Label(parent, image=image)
image_label.pack()

# Start the Tkinter event loop
parent.mainloop()

In the exercise above,

• Load an image using the PIL library and open it with Image.open().
• Create an ImageTk.PhotoImage object from the loaded image.
• Create a label widget (tk.Label) and set its image to the ImageTk.PhotoImage object.
• Finally, use pack() to display the label with the image in the "Tkinter" window.

The "Tkinter" window will display the specified image (e.g., your logo) when we run this program.
