How can i get the program to add a number to another figure when i reach a certain point.
For example
If i made a quiz where the contestant gets 3 points for a correct answer how would i add that 3 points to his total. He has an option to view his stats and i want the points to add to his total points in his stats.
HELP!!!

maybe by intializing a variable TOTAL to zero, e.g.,
TOTAL = 0
and then in your loop (or whatever) doing something like
TOTAL = TOTAL + POINTS
(Why do I have a sinking feeling that I totally misunderstood your question?)

does it check if he got the right answer directly after the question?

like this
Code:
Contestant1.points = 0
INPUT " Question 1, Do I rule? ", question1$
IF question1$ = "yes" THEN
Contestant1.points = Contestant1.points + 1
ELSE
Contestant1.points = Contestant1.points - 1
In the last line, you could just have Contestant1.points = Contestant1.points , which would mean you don't lose any points.
Was that your question ?
