i want to display multiple python tkinter calculators and move them simultaneously

I use python's Tkinter.
I was able to display multiple calculators on the screen, but if I displayed four at the same time, this time the calculator was only displayed and I couldn't calculate numbers without typing. How can I improve it so that four calculators can be displayed and used at the same time?
Now I write four codes below and four calculators are displayed, but I can't use the calculator function at the same time.

Error message

You can display multiple calculators but you cannot use the calculator at the same time

    Tkinter is not so detailed ...
    If you want to create more than one, you should define a class.
    If you want to create multiple top level windows, use the Toplevel component.

    I tried to display 4 other than the root window.
    All four exits when you close the root window.
    Information on which window is processed is passed to the argument self.

    from tkinter import *
class Calc (Toplevel):
    def func (self, v):
        self.var1.set (self.var1.get () + v)
    def clear (self):
        self.var1.set ("")
    def all_clear (self):
        self.var1.set ("")
    def result (self):
        try:
            self.var1.set (eval (self.var1.get ()))
        except SyntaxError:
            self.var1.set ("SyntaxError")
        except ZeroDivisionError:
            self.var1.set ("ZeroDivisionError")
        except NameError:
            self.var1.set ("NameError")
    def __init __ (self, title):
        super () .__ init __ ()
        self.title (title)
        self.var1 = StringVar ()
        label = Label (self, textvariable = self.var1, fg = "# ffffff", bg = "# 000000", anchor = E, height = 2)
        label.grid (row = 0, column = 0, columnspan = 4, sticky = "EW")
        #First row
        btn_c = Button (self, text = "C", command = self.clear, width = 5, height = 2)
        btn_c.grid (row = 1, column = 2)
        btn_ac = Button (self, text = "AC", command = self.all_clear, width = 5, height = 2)
        btn_ac.grid (row = 1, column = 3)
        btn_add = Button (self, text = "+", command = lambda: self.func ("+"), width = 5, height = 2)
        btn_add.grid (row = 2, column = 3)
        # 2nd row
        btn_7 = Button (self, text = "7", command = lambda: self.func ("7"), width = 5, height = 2)
        btn_7.grid (row = 2, column = 0)
        btn_8 = Button (self, text = "8", command = lambda: self.func ("8"), width = 5, height = 2)
        btn_8.grid (row = 2, column = 1)
        btn_9 = Button (self, text = "9", command = lambda: self.func ("9"), width = 5, height = 2)
        btn_9.grid (row = 2, column = 2)
        # 3rd row
        btn_4 = Button (self, text = "4", command = lambda: self.func ("4"), width = 5, height = 2)
        btn_4.grid (row = 3, column = 0)
        btn_5 = Button (self, text = "5", command = lambda: self.func ("5"), width = 5, height = 2)
        btn_5.grid (row = 3, column = 1)
        btn_6 = Button (self, text = "6", command = lambda: self.func ("6"), width = 5, height = 2)
        btn_6.grid (row = 3, column = 2)
        btn_mul = Button (self, text = "*", command = lambda: self.func ("*"), width = 5, height = 2)
        btn_mul.grid (row = 3, column = 3)
        # 4th row
        btn_1 = Button (self, text = "1", command = lambda: self.func ("1"), width = 5, height = 2)
        btn_1.grid (row = 4, column = 0)
        btn_2 = Button (self, text = "2", command = lambda: self.func ("2"), width = 5, height = 2)

        btn_eq.grid (row = 5, column = 3)
root = Tk ()
