Welcome folks today in this blog post we will be counting words in sentences using collections and tkinter in python. All the full source code of the application is shown below.

Get Started

In order to get started you need to make an app.py file and copy paste the following code

app.py

#Imports
import tkinter as tk
from tkinter import *
from collections import Counter

#Functions
def countWords(s):
    signos = [',', '.', ';', ':']
    cleanstr = ''
    for letra in s.lower():
        if letra in signos:
            cleanstr += ''
        else:
            cleanstr += letra
    strlist = cleanstr.split(' ')
    return dict(Counter(strlist))


def button_count():
    text = mainWindow.e2.get()

    count = countWords(text)
    myLabel = Label(root, text=count)
    myLabel.pack()


#Graphics
root = tk.Tk()
root.title("Count words")
root.geometry('400x400')

#Class Window
class Window:

    def __init__(self, root):
        self.root = root
        self.e2 = tk.StringVar()
        self.e = tk.Entry(root, textvariable=self.e2, width=35, borderwidth=5)
        self.e.pack()

        self.button = Button(root, text="Count words", command=button_count)
        self.button.pack()
        self.exit_button = Button(root, text="Exit", command=root.quit)
        self.exit_button.pack()


if __name__ == '__main__':
    
    mainWindow = Window(root)

        
    

root.mainloop()

Now if you execute the python script by typing the below command as shown below

python app.py
