You should run this from the command line to see the errors and tracebacks.
You have a `firstname` and `lastname` variable, no `name` variable.
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "py_tutor.py", line 34, in <module>
STATS()
File "py_tutor.py", line 26, in STATS
details=name+"\n"+town+"\n"+county
NameError: global name 'name' is not defined
Once you fix that with something like `name = firstname + ' ' +
lastname` you'll get a further error
Press the enter key to exit.
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "py_tutor.py", line 39, in <module>
_ = input("\n\nPress the enter key to exit. ")
File "<string>", line 0
Which is because input() converts the input to an integer so you would
need to type for eg 0 then enter for it to exit without failing.
Changing that to raw_input() like the rest of your inputs will fix that.
