PyGame App NameError: name 'event' is not defined

This is extremely annoying and I don't know why it's happening. Here's the code:

import pygame
from sys import exit

def createWin(x, y):
    winCreate = True
    while winCreate:
        win = pygame.display.set_mode((x, y))
        if event.type == pygame.QUIT:
            pygame.quit()
            exit()

createWin(1000, 1000)

I get this error:

NameError: name 'event' is not defined

You should do -

for event in pygame.event.get():
    if event.type == pygame.QUIT:
        pygame.quit()
        exit()

Otherwise python will not recognize event!
