[Python] When i work with tkinter no window pops up and my command line terminal acts as if a...

I have been trying out the tkinter library for python and have been noticing a strange pattern of behavior that I encounter but the behavior doesnt occur with the tutorial videos. I have tried:

1. '

from tkinter import *

root = Tk()

lableee = Label(root, text = "hi")

lableee.pack()

root.mainloop()


'

2. `

import tkinter as tk

tk._test()`


(within the command line terminal)

python -m tkinter

For the first two items above a window that pops up should appear but it doesn't. For all three of the items above my command line beggins to not take any new commands unless i click the trashcan icon to kill the terminal and then press CTRL + j to pull it back up (VS code).

The code isnt meant to do anything significant yet. Please help me get the window to pop up when the program runs. Thanks
