shell scripting project for school

i need to prompt the user for


a) group of scores
b) calculate the lowest and highest scores and overall average
c) print out to the screen
d ask if user has any more data to process, if so repeat (loop) for a new set of scores if not exit.


i have this much,and trust me i know there is a lot missing



#!/bin/bash


echo
echo -n "Enter the first score (abc to exit): "
read $score


until [[ $first == abc ]]
do
echo -n "Enter the next score: "
read $score







until
echo -n "Enter d if all scores are entered: "
read $score

[[ $score == $score+1 ]]







echo "The result is: $ans"



done


echo "Goodbye"
echo
exit 0






I know I am on the right track, but Unix is new to me (school project) I am just looking for help, ive been around since the dos days and have played some with vb, basic, etc. but its been awhile, any help is appreciated (its due Wednesday!!)

#THIS IS WHAT I HAVE SO FAR, WILL KEEP WORKING


#!/bin/bash

echo
echo -n "Enter the first score (abc to exit): "
read $score

until [[ $first == abc ]]
do
echo -n "Enter the next score: "
read $score




until
echo -n "Enter d if all scores are entered: "
read $score


if [[ $oper == d ]]
then
#this would be the sum of scores
(( $ans == $score + 1 ))
(( $ans == $score + $score + 1 ))

then
#this would be the avg of scores
(( $ans == $score / ?))

then (( $hilo == $score < >))
#this would be highest and lowest

then (( $avg == ))



fi


#print out

echo "The sum is: $ans $hilo $avg"
echo "The High Low scores are $hilo"
echo "The average score is $avg"

echo -n "Do you want to input a new batch of scores? (abc to exit): "
read $score

if [[ $oper == d ]]
then

else
fi
done



echo "Goodbye"
echo
exit 0

ROGUE(6)							 BSD Games Manual							  ROGUE(6)

NAME
rogue -- exploring The Dungeons of Doom SYNOPSIS
rogue [-s] [save_file] DESCRIPTION
rogue is a computer fantasy game with a new twist. It is CRT oriented and the object of the game is to survive the attacks of various mon- sters and get a lot of gold, rather than the puzzle solving orientation of most computer fantasy games. To get started you really only need to know two commands. The command ? will give you a list of the available commands and the command / will identify the things you see on the screen. To win the game (as opposed to merely playing to beat other people's high scores) you must locate the Amulet of Yendor which is somewhere below the 20th level of the dungeon and get it out. Nobody has achieved this yet and if somebody does, they will probably go down in history as a hero among heroes. When the game ends, either by your death, when you quit, or if you (by some miracle) manage to win, rogue will give you a list of the top-ten scorers. The scoring is based entirely upon how much gold you get. There is a 10% penalty for getting yourself killed. If save_file is specified, rogue will be restored from the specified saved game file. The -s option will print out the list of scores. For more detailed directions, read the document A Guide to the Dungeons of Doom. FILES
