467 PointsHow do you add lager sums of number to Int
What if you are making a personality test that works like A+10 B + 20 C-10 D-20 At first I thought I could just do int x = 0; if (answer.equals("b")) { x + 20; }
however that did not work at all. Can someone help me please

if(answer.equalsIgnoreCase("b"))
{
x += 20;
}
