CS1061 error when I try to connect two scripts in C# in unity

Scripting C# & .NET
1

I am new to Unity and C# and recently I got stuck on an error which I constantly receive without knowing the exaxt cause.

I am trying to connect a text script to my player script but it keeps saying that it can’t acces the variable ‘playerScore’ even though I am connecting the player script to my text script.
Webpage
here’s the code of the text script:

public GameObject player;
public Text scoreText;
// Start is called before the first frame update
void Start()
{
 
}

// Update is called once per frame
void Update()
{
   scoreText.text = player.playerScore.ToString();
}

}

the variable player that you’ve declared is of type GameObject.
GameObject does not contain a property called playerScore

So where is it going to have to get that playerScore from? It’s not going to search it for you.
