I am getting TypeError: function missing required argument 'dest' (pos 2)

Question

This is the code:

import pygame, sys
from pygame.locals import *

pygame.init()
DISPLAYSURF = pygame.display.setmode((400, 300))
pygame.display.set_caption('Hello World!')
while True: # Main game loop
    for event in pygame.event_get():
        if event.type == QUIT:
            pygame.quit()
            sys.exit()
            pygame.display.update()

I am getting this error:

TypeError: function missing required argument 'dest' (pos 2) error

While running the code.

Can you please share the whole stack trace so we can see which line the error occurred on. — Bigbadboybob, Oct 11 '21 at 19:20

You are missing a parameter called dest from your function call which presumably stands for destination. In order to solve the issue you will need to find the line where the problem occurred, look at the problematic function call and pass correctly the second parameter. If you need further information, then add actual code into your question along with the line where the issue occurred.
