'Ww' won't exist until 'on_configure' assigns to it, and that won't 
happen until `mainloop` starts.

Also, 'global' works only within a function.

import tkinter as tk

def on_configure(event):
     print(f'{event.width=}, {event.height=}')

root = tk.Tk()
root.bind('<Configure>',on_configure)
root.mainloop()
