The Checkbutton widget is a standard Tkinter widgets used to implement on-off selections. Checkbuttons can contain text or images, and you can associate a Python function or method with each button. When the button is pressed, Tkinter automatically calls that function or method.
The button can only display text in a single font, but the text may span more than one line. In addition, one of the characters can be underlined, for example to mark a keyboard shortcut. By default, the Tab key can be used to move to a button widget.
Each Checkbutton widget should be associated with a variable.
The checkbutton widget is choose between two distinct values (usually switching something on or off). Groups of checkbuttons can be used to implement "many-of-many" selections.
To handle "one-of-many" choices, use Radiobutton and Listbox widgets.
