How do you Code With Variables?

[scratchblocks]

[/scratchblocks][scratchblocks]
forever
play sound [ Help me!] until done

You can make a vairable like “Score” To keep score. You can just make a new variable

_THEBOSS_7

uhhhh you set var. to numbers you want, to store data, but use lists if you want to store lots of data. var. can also store letters and symbols but cloud variables cannot.

How do I use it?

So a variable saves string and number data, or information. When you set the variable “score” to 7, scratch remembers that number.

Say you want to add “score” to 5. You will say, “set <new variable> to ”score“ + 5”. That will make new variable equal 12, because 7+5 is 12.

This is good for clicker games:

When this sprite is clicked:
change “score” by 1

I hope this helps!!!

Thanks all of you!
