Show the score

What we are doing

The score is written in the top-left corner with fillText.

```js
ctx.fillStyle = 'white'
ctx.font = 'bold 16px sans-serif'
ctx.textAlign = 'left'
ctx.fillText('Score ' + score, 10, 22)
```

What it means

• font is the size and typeface; with textAlign = 'left' the point is the text's left end.
• 'Score ' + score joins text and a number; fillText paints it at (10, 22).

Your turn

In draw, under the explosion loop, leave an empty line and write the four lines.
