Give a number a name

Store and change a score.

Suppose Pip picks up a crystal. We need to remember the score between actions. A variable gives a value a name so we can use it again. Read int score = 0 as: make a whole-number value named score, starting at zero. int means integer, which is a whole number. The equals sign stores a value; it does not ask whether two values match.

int score = 0
score = score + 10
Console.Log("Score: " + Text.From(score))

manifestVersion = "2"
package = "api.example.recipe__values"
version = "0.1.0"
languageEdition = "yeho-core-2026.1"

[app]
kind = "headless"

Score: 10
