kidsThe case of the missing point.
Debugging means finding why your program does something unexpected and fixing it. A useful strategy is to predict, run, look at the values, and change one thing.
Your mission: debugging & testing
Fix this score counter. It starts at zero, adds one each round, and prints the final score. It must work for 1, 3, and 5 rounds.
One round: 1Three rounds: 3Five rounds: 5Build it: choose a toolbox category, drag blocks onto the canvas, then snap instructions inside when I press Run. Drop values into matching sockets. Edit words or numbers directly on their blocks.
Waking up the blocks…

Inputs Try different values
Inputs give your program information. An “input” block reads a value by its exact name. Task checks use their own values.
From blocks to Python A bridge to your next adventure
Generate real Python from these blocks. The helper functions keep Bit’s messages familiar. Python has its own type rules; the Python trail explains them.
A little hint, please
The loop count is already correct. Look closely at the number added to score inside the loop.
How do I use these blocks?
Pick a category on the left to see its blocks. Drag a block onto the canvas. Instructions connect in a stack inside “when I press Run”. Rounded value blocks go into sockets. Change a field by selecting the word, number, or dropdown on the block.
Use the canvas zoom controls or Fit blocks if a stack goes out of view. Undo can bring back an accidental change. Disconnected blocks do not run. Your canvas saves here on this device.
