macOS Bit of help, much appreciated

[Maleficum]

Okay... I am now working on a simple game of Pong. Everything is going well - the paddling, the ball moving across the screen to the other paddle - but I can not get "score" to work... I have tried a "for" loop, but when I do, the window shows up, but so does a big list of exceptions.

 public void paint(Graphics window)
   {
         
		ball.moveAndDraw(window);  //move the ball and redraw it
       leftPaddle.moveDownAndDraw(window);
       leftPaddle.moveUpAndDraw(window);
       rightPaddle.moveUpAndDraw(window); 
        rightPaddle.moveDownAndDraw(window);
         int score = 0; 
        int score2 = 0; 
     
		//see if ball hits left wall or right wall
		
	
		 if ( ball.getX() > 550)
	      {
	        ball.setXSpeed(-ball.getXSpeed());
			ball.setYSpeed(-ball.getYSpeed());
			
              score = score + 1; 
	          
	       
	       } 
		  if(ball.getX()<10)
        { 
              
         ball.setXSpeed(-ball.getXSpeed());
			ball.setYSpeed(-ball.getYSpeed());
	          
            score2 = score2 +1; 
	         
	       
         
			
    } 

    
    
    
    
    
		//see if ball hits top wall or bottom wall
      if ((ball.getY()>450) || (ball.getY()<50))
		{
			ball.setYSpeed(-ball.getYSpeed());
		}
	
     
		//see if ball hits left paddle
      
      
         [B]if(didCollideLeft())
          { 
               
           ball.setYSpeed(-ball.getYSpeed()); 
           ball.setXSpeed(-ball.getXSpeed());
           
           } 
           
           
           
          
		//see if Ball hits right paddle
		
        if(didCollideRight())
        { 
            ball.setYSpeed(-ball.getYSpeed()); 
           ball.setXSpeed(-ball.getXSpeed());
           
        }[/B]
      
        
		//see if the paddles need to be moved

The highlighted part is where I think the part that controls the score needs to go. All I'm needing is a simple score drawString command that will give each paddle a point after... well, you know how Pong works .

Any ASAP help is greatly appreciated. Thanks SOOOOOO much.

Are you using SDL, Allegro, or another API? This in C++ I assume. I just need to know what API you're using and if its a custom view (if Cocoa) or what. That would help out the most.
