        super().__init__()
  
  
        # set the title
        self.setWindowTitle("Python")
  
        # setting geometry
        self.setGeometry(100, 100, 600, 400)
  
        # creating a label widget
        self.label_1 = QLabel("old label ", self)
  
        # setting up the border and background color
        self.label_1.setStyleSheet("border :3px solid black; 
                                    background : pink")
  
        # getting the content of label
        content = self.label_1.text()
          
        # printing the content of label

        # moving the label
        self.label_1.move(10, 100)
  
        # creating a new label widget
        self.label_2 = QLabel("new Label ", self)

        self.label_2.setStyleSheet("border :3px solid black; 
                                    background : green")
  
        # moving the label

        # printing the content of label
        print(self.label_2.text())
  
        # show all the widgets
