    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__()
  
        # set the title
        self.setWindowTitle("Close")
  
        # setting  the geometry of window
        self.setGeometry(0, 0, 400, 300)
  
        # creating a label widget
        self.label = QLabel("Icon is set", self)
  
        # moving position
        self.label.move(100, 100)
  
        # setting up border
        self.label.setStyleSheet("border: 1px solid black;")
  
        # show all the widgets
        self.show()
  
        # waiting for 2 second
        time.sleep(2)
  
        # closing the window

# create pyqt5 app
