As radio boxes always have a selected item, the return value is never ``NOT_FOUND`` for this class. :rtype: `int` .. method:: GetString(self, n : int) Returns the label of the item with the given index. The index must be valid, i.e. less than the value returned by :meth:`GetCount` , otherwise an assert is triggered.
