EXTEND—STEP 1: It would be nice if we kept score. Let's add a scoreboard to our program!

  • In LOGIC, click on , and drag in Integer Variable to the bottom of your program.
  • Let's rename our variable. Change the name to left of the = sign from my_var to score.
  • Then, change the number to the right of the = sign from 25 to 0. (We shouldn't just give our player 25 points!)
