Hey, so for my Intro to computer studies course we have to create a pong game for our final program, I was just wondering If anyone could tell me why this does not work, and a solution for this problem?

var scorefont : int := Font.New ("Agency FB:45")

Font.Draw (": ", p1score, 100, 500, scorefont, yellow)
Font.Draw (": ", p2score, 524, 374, scorefont, yellow)
^Turing Is constantly giving me an error for this but I do not no how to fix it, please help!

What's the error say? And can you show us how you declare 'yellow', 'scorefont', and 'p1(1/2)score'?

The error says "Call to "draw" has to many parameter", however I need the yellow at the end for the colour of the font.

This is exactly it:
var p1score, p2score : int := 0
var scorefont : int := Font.New ("Agency FB:45")

Font.Draw (": ", p1score, 100, 500, scorefont, yellow)
Font.Draw (": ", p2score, 524, 374, scorefont, yellow)

and if I get rid of the yellow which I need for the color of the text it says "Color value of 5004 is out of bounds. Max color number = 256"

Your problem is here
Font.Draw (": ", p1score, 100, 500, scorefont, yellow)

It looks like you're trying to draw two strings to the screen, but Font.Draw only draws one string. Try putting them together using +.
