selectName.set(“Select Name”)  
namesList = OptionMenu(window,selectName,“Bob”,“Sue”,“Tim”) 
namesList.place(x = 30, y = 250) 
Creates a variable called 
selectName
 which will store a string where the original 
value of the variable is “Select Name”. It will then create a drop-down option menu 
which stores the value the user selects in the selectName variable and displays the 
values in the list: Bob, Sue and Tim.
