Do you mean a score which increases during playing and then is saved in a file till it's loaded again when the player starts gaming again???

like this?

Code:

CLS

DO
LOCATE 1, 5: PRINT score
IF score = 10 THEN PRINT "YOU WIN!"
INPUT a
IF a = INT(RND * 2) + 1 THEN score = score + 1 ELSE score = score - 1
LOOP

See if you can follow this 'game'. Type 999 to quit.

Code:

DO

  ' This generates some random numbers between 1 and 12 for a% and b%
   a% = INT(RND * 12) + 1
   b% = INT(RND * 12) + 1

   'display the score
   PRINT "Your score:"; score%

   'print the next question
   PRINT a%; "x"; b%;

   'request input for answer
   INPUT "= ", answer%

   'quit on 999
   IF answer% = 999 THEN EXIT DO

   'update the score if correct
   IF answer% = a% * b% THEN score% = score% + 1 'update score

LOOP
