[PyQt] Doubt

[Dennis Jensen]

Tanya shoot me a friend request on Discord at DenniO#8137 and I can get 
you an invite to a Free Python-Pyqt classroom-like tutoring/mentoring 
message server where we help you learn to fish (code in python pyqt) but 
bring your thinking cap because we would rather not give a fish (answer) 
but instead help you understand the aspects of coding so that you can 
answer your question yourself :) -- okay we do help with code templates 
and snippets but we do not write your assignment for you.
