grid_location() method –
This method returns a tuple containing (column, row) of any specified widget. Since this method is a widget method you cannot use it with master object ( or Tk() object). In order to use this method, you should first create a Frame and treat it as a parent (or master).
Syntax: widget.grid_location(x, y)
Parameters:
x and y are the positions, relative to the upper left corner of the widget (parent widget).
In below example, grid_location() is used to get the location of the widget in the Frame widget.
