Question

How could the following code be adapted for a baseball score keeping?

1 def scoreUpdate(value):
2 # update the score value with the points earned
3 return(value + 6)
4 def bonus(value):
5 return(value + 1)
6 score = 6
7 score = scoreUpdate(score)
8 print("after update " + str(score))
9 score = bonus(score)
10 print("after bonus "+ str(score))
(1 point)

To adapt the code for baseball scorekeeping, you will typically want to reflect runs scored by teams (which is usually 1 point per run). Here’s how the changes would look to make it more suitable for that purpose:

1. **Change how points are scored** - In baseball, each run scored is usually counted as 1.
2. **Remove the bonus section or modify it** (if you want it to reflect specific game rules like scoring in certain situations).
3. **Ensure that the score reflects the correct accumulation of runs based on typical baseball rules**.

Based on your provided options, here is how to adapt the original code to properly account for baseball scoring:

### Adapted Code
```python
def scoreUpdate(value):
# update the score value with the points earned
return(value + 1) # Update to add only 1 point for a run

score = 0 # Start with a score of 0
score = scoreUpdate(score) # Update the score with 1 run
print("after update " + str(score)) # Print current score
```

### Evaluating Your Changes:
1. **Change the 6 to a 1 in line 6.** (Appropriate for starting at 0 runs)
2. **Change line 3 from 6 to 1.** (Appropriate for point scoring)

Based on the provided responses, the best single change to apply to correctly adjust this for baseball would be:

- **Change the 6 to a 1 in line 6.**
- **Replace 6 with 1 in line 3 and remove the bonus section.** (While removing the bonus section isn't required to make it baseball relevant, it's a viable option if you don't want to handle bonuses at all.)

### Correct Responses:
Given the options, the correct response to make the scorekeeping align with baseball would be either of these:

- **Change the 6 to a 1 in line 6.**
- **Replace 6 with 1 in line 3 and remove the bonus section.**
