Piyush and magical park

#include
#include
using namespace std;

int main(){
int n,m,k,s;
int i,j,score;
cin>>n>>m>>k>>s;
score = s;
char a[n][m];//={{’.’,’.’,’’,’.’},{’.’,’#’,’.’,’.’},{’’,’’,’.’,’.’},{’.’,’#’,’’,’*’}};;
// read
for(i=0;i<n;i++){
for(j=0;j<m;j++){
cin>>a[i][j];
}
}
//calulate score
for(i=0;i<n;i++){
while(score>k){
for(j=0;j<m;j++){

		if(a[i][j]=='#')
			break;
		else if(a[i][j]=='*')
			score += 5;
		else
			score -= 2;
	}
	if(j==m)
		score -= j-1; // if loop ends it will make it ++
	else
		score -= j;
}}
if(score>=k)
	cout<<"Yes\n"<<score;
else
	cout<<"No";

return 0;

}
why it is not passing all test cases?

hey @tishya_goyal you need to check if score is greater than k at every step since it is mentioned that if at any moment the energy becomes less that or equal to k, piyush will get lost. moreover

        if(j==m)
		score -= j-1; // if loop ends it will make it ++
	else
		score -= j;

This condition appears to be wrong you should only subtract 1 if j != m-1
