Add the Giga sprite from the sprite library.

This sprite will ask the questions.

Scratch: How to add a sprite from the library

---

To add a sprite from the sprite library follow these steps:

1. Put your mouse over the Choose a Sprite button
2. Click on the magnifying glass
3. Find the sprite you want in the library
4. Click on your chosen sprite

You can use search box or the filter links (Animals, People, Fantasy etc) to locate your sprite.

We will need 4 different variables to store some numbers that we need in the game.

Create the following 4 variables:

• number1 - this will store the first number in the sum
• number2 - this will store the second number in the sum
• max number - this will store the maximum number that can be used in the sums
• points - this will store how many sums the player gets right

After you have created the variables, uncheck their checkboxes so that they do not appear in the stage area.

Scratch: How to create a variable

---

In the Variables palette, create a new variable by clicking the 'Make a Variable' button.

Once you click this button a box will appear asking what you want to call your variable. Give it a name that reminds you what you will be using it for. For example, if you wanted to keep track of your score in a game, you would create a variable called 'score'.

Let's set up some things for the start of the game. We will set the 'points' variable to 0, set the 'max number' variable to 10 and start the timer.

Add the following code to the Giga sprite.

when green flag clicked set [points v] to (0) set [max number v] to (10) reset timer
