Beta test version now available

Hi Everyone, I'm coming back from a burnout-break of not doing anything hobby related for about 8 months, that even included reading the boards here. BUT while I was away, I've been learning Python and having a blast, so the first thing I thought I would do is start to create a character creator for the SMF. It's already easy to do, but with all of the intricacies I thought it would be a great way to put myself to the test.
I've only included about 4 archetypes, but if anyone wanted to try it out, please do. The final output is a huge list of variables that will eventually be formatted nicely for copying and pasting into your favorite word processor or possible a PDF for download if I can manage it. There is a long way to go as I am learning along the way.
Just hit the green play button on the right.

Disclaimer: If you are a code pro, no comments on the quality of the code please! This is really about the product :)
DOUBLE DISCLAIMER - Just fixed it, please give it a whirl! The final results will be a list of variables that I'll late format nicely.

Great start, Fergal!

That's really cool, I love this! Thank you for sharing it!

Holy Cow, for some reason my notifications don't seem to be working any more.
Thanks for the comment DS615, I'd basically stopped working on it due to lack of interest for the board (which is really the only outlet I have for the SMF community). Didn't seem like anyone was interested. It's an incredibly involved project for an emerging coder like myself, I'm pretty much using it to teach myself python but new ideas pop up all the time to do that with so I'd switched my efforts over to those.
There is the potential to have it produce a PNG file with the stats on it that looks very similar to some of the stat cards I've seen on this site. Though I'd need some help debugging along the way.

I love the idea of an ultimate output to a slick looking template, but no rush.
Focus on getting the nuts and bolts and worry about the garnish later, I guess.
I am keenly interested in this project, so thanks!
