Read the current value, add 5, and store the result back in coins. Assignment updates the stored value; = does not ask whether the two sides are equal.
Keep a local variable and update it with addition. Change the amount added so its final value is the number 18, then display the stored value.

Lines must stay in order. Spelling, capitalization and spaces inside a message matter.
local score=3
score=score+4
print(score)The update stores 7 before it is displayed.
New syntax: coins = coins + 5
On the second line, the right side is calculated first using the current value. The left side names the variable that receives the result.
The count starts at 10. Adding 5 stores 15. A later print reads the updated value, rather than the original 10.
