well ur code seems to not be working since u didn't list one of the variables

but search for arrays tutorial it will explain

for scoring the simplest thing to do in my opinion is have a counter. and if astroid is broken then counter +=10, this way u get 10 points every time astroid is broken, at the end u just type put "your scrore is".. put counter
