Pygame Score per Click -

i create program whenever pressed mouse button, score incrementing 1.

here code far:

import pygame  pygame.init()  white = (255,255,255) display = pygame.display.set_mode((800, 400))  def count():      exit = true  while exit:      mouseclick = pygame.mouse.get_pressed()      event in pygame.event.get():         if event.type == pygame.quit:             pygame.quit()             quit()          if event.type == pygame.mousebuttondown:             global score             score = 0             if mouseclick[0] == 1:                 score1=score+1                 print (score1)             else:                 print (score)      display.fill(white)     pygame.display.update() count() 

the problem lies in way handle score:

if event.type == pygame.mousebuttondown:     global score     score = 0     if mouseclick[0] == 1:         score1=score+1         print (score1)     else:         print (score) 

at every iteration, if click detected, reset score. it's equal 0.

just rid of score = 0 (and of global score well), , put right before main loop:

score = 0 while exit:     ... 

now, when want increment score, don't need second variable. instead, write:

score += 1 

which equivalent to:

score = score + 1 

on other hand, code redefines new variable score1, , assign score + 1, equal 1. have score variable equal 0, , score1 variable equal 1.

a logical way handle of be:

score = 0 while exit:         ...         if event.type == pygame.mousebuttondown:             if mouseclick[0] == 1:                 score += 1
