Answer 1

You forgot to call the Tk.mainloop method at the end of your program:

from Tkinter import *
def asdf():
    print('test')
tk = Tk()
b = Button(tk, text="test", command=asdf)
b.pack()
##############
tk.mainloop()
##############

Doing so starts Tkinter’s main event loop and creates the window.

Answer 2

It seems you are using Python3, as there are parentheses after print, so from Tkinter import * should be from tkinter import *. Python is case-sensitive. You also forgot to call root.mainloop() at the end of your code as @user2555451 mentioned, although a window should appear all the same, but stop responding when any event occurs (e.g., clicks, key presses, focus changes) or briefly appear before closing itself.
