I have my game working fine now but I still want to take it further. I want to have a point scoring system included. I want the player to score 5 points if they have 1 live left when they win, 10 if they have 2 and 15 if they have all 3. But I don't want the score to be reset if they play again I just want it to say when the quit the game you have scored " " points. I have tried to do this in many different ways but I can seem to get it work it resets the score every time press y on the play again. I've included my base game code below please try and help. Any other recomendations for this game are very welcome.
**My apologies I don't know if I made this clear enough before. I don't want the score to be stored after the programs closed just until the player presses n when asked to play again **

#correct number variable created

#main game code
def main():

#set num as a global variable

#if correct says well done
print('\nWell Done! You guessed Correctly!\n')
break
elif comp_num >= guess:
#if guess is too low tells player
#one live taken for incorrect guess
lives = lives -1
print('\nToo low!\n')
#player is told how many lives they have left
print('You guessed incorrectly. You have',lives,'live(s) remaining.\n')
if lives == 0:
#if player guesses incorrectly they get told the correct awnser
print('The number I was thinking of was...',comp_num,'!\n')

#if guess is too high tells player
#one live taken for incorrect guess
lives = lives -1

#player is told how many lives they have left

def end():
#asks player if they want to play again
play_again = input('Would you like to play again?[Y/N] ')
while play_again.lower() == 'y':
#if they do game resets and plays again
if play_again.lower() == 'y':
comp_num = random.randint(1,10)
print('\nI\'m thinking of a number guess what it is...\n')
main()
play_again = input('Would you like to play again?[Y/N] ')

break
if play_again.lower() == 'n':
#if they don't game ends
input('Ok, Press enter to exit')
exit()
#calls main section of game
main()
#calls end of game to give option of playing again and reseting game
end()
Use this pattern:
def game(): # Play a single game.
lives = 3
...
return 5 * lives # Return the score of the game.
def ask_again():
print 'Play again?'
answer = ...
return answer == 'y' # Return True iff the user wants to play again.
def main():
score = game()
while ask_again():
score += game()
print score
main()
