How do you save something that is before displayIntro() and then put it in displayIntro() with the same value?

are you saying that you have a variable defined outside the function, and you want it to be defined in the function with the same value? If yes, you just have to use the keyword global.
Example:


var = input("What is your favorite color?")
def hello():
  return "Hello user. " + var + "is your favorite color!"
print(hello())

That won't work ^
but this code will:


var = input("What is your favorite color?")
def hello():
  global var
  return "Hello user. " + var + "is your favorite color!"
print(hello())

What I am saying is that I want the points to be in the displayIntro() with the same value as before the displayIntro()

If you do not understand what I am saying plat the code, so chose a game type what it says for you to type slots or spinandwin and then after you earn some points switch the game and it will say it does not know what points is.

In this case it is points that I need to save.
