Please help me with this bug. I have python 3.0 and I was using pygame and for some reason it isn't reconizing

windowSurface

here Is the code Im having problems with and thanks in advance.

import pygame, sys, random 
from pygame.locals import *

    Font1 = pygame.font.SysFont('ActionIsShaded', 25)
    windowSurface.fill(BLACK)
    text = basicFont.render ('Test',False,WHITE,BLUE)
    textRect = text.get_rect()
    textRect.centerx = windowSurface.get_rect().centerx-100
    textRect.centery = windowSurface.get_rect().centery-250
    windowSurface.blit(text,textRect)
    pygame.display.update()

def menu():
    newscreen()
    basicFont = pygame.font.SysFont(None, 48)
    Font1 = pygame.font.SysFont('ActionIsShaded', 25)
    one = basicFont.render('1', False, WHITE, RED) 
    two = basicFont.render('2',False,WHITE,GREEN)
    three = basicFont.render('3',False,WHITE,ORANGE)
    four = basicFont.render('4',False,WHITE,YELLOW)

    oneRect.size = (100,100)
    fourRect = end.get_rect()

    windowSurface.blit(two,twoRect)
    windowSurface.blit(three,threeRect)

In
threeRect = vl.get_rect()
where does v1 come from?

The variable windowSurface is not a global value and is local to the newscreen() method. You can make it that newscreen() returns windowSurface, but it will make your program much more future proof if you wrap these methods in a class, and declare windowSurface as self.windowSurface so that it can be called between methods without passing variables between methods.

There are also a few other problems with the code, but the below fix should get your program running so you can debug, but I would strongly recommend wrapping these functions in a class.
