JavaScript Quiz Question, keep on clicking

This is a working JavaScript Practice Quiz made by a noob (me).

the problem? as you can see the quiz, you can keep on clicking the answer button after you picked your answer. How can I avoid this?? I try using **onclick = null ** but I couldn't set it back to click state.

Thank you for your answers!!!!! Here is the QUIZ

<script>
    let answers = [{
        question: "01 What year is it",
        a: "1850",
        b: "1920",
        c: "*2020",
        d: "1995",
        correct: "c"
    }, {
        question: "02 What color is the Sun?",
        a: "*Yellow",
        b: "Red",
        c: "Green",

You can set a flag that gets toggled when an answer is clicked. If the flag is already set when an answer is clicked, don't do anything. When advancing to a new slide, reset the flag:

function plusSlides(n) {
  slideAnswered = false;
  showSlides(slideIndex = slideIndex + n);
}

// ...

let slideAnswered = false;
function checkAnswers(choice) {
  if (slideAnswered) return;
  slideAnswered = true;
  // check answers for this slide...

let answers = [{
  question: "01 What year is it",
  a: "1850",
  b: "1920",
  c: "*2020",
  d: "1995",
  correct: "c"
}, {
  question: "02 What color is the Sun?",
  a: "*Yellow",
  b: "Red",
  c: "Green",
  d: "Purple",
  correct: "a"
}, {
  question: "03 How do you say 'Hello' in French?",
  a: "I don't know",
  b: "Hi?",
  c: "Paris?",
  d: "*Bonjour",
  correct: "d"
}, {
  question: "What was the color of Napoleon's white horse?",
  a: "*White",
  b: "Grey",
  c: "DarkBlue",
  d: "Rainbow",
  correct: "a"
}];

var slideIndex = 0;
var scoring = 0;
var q = document.getElementById("questionheader");
var a = document.getElementById("a");
var b = document.getElementById("b");
var c = document.getElementById("c");
var d = document.getElementById("d");


showSlides(slideIndex);

function plusSlides(n) {
  slideAnswered = false;
  showSlides(slideIndex = slideIndex + n);
}

function showSlides(n) {
  a.classList.remove("green");
  b.classList.remove("green");
  c.classList.remove("green");
  d.classList.remove("green");
  a.classList.remove("red");
  b.classList.remove("red");
  c.classList.remove("red");
  d.classList.remove("red");
  a.classList.remove("borderGreen");
  b.classList.remove("borderGreen");
  c.classList.remove("borderGreen");
  d.classList.remove("borderGreen");
  document.getElementById("Goodjob").classList.remove("show")


  if (n > 3) {
    slideIndex = 3
  }
  if (n < 1) {
    slideIndex = 0
  }

  q.innerHTML = answers[slideIndex].question;
  a.innerHTML = answers[slideIndex].a;

      document.getElementById(right).classList.add("borderGreen")

    } else if (choice === right && slideIndex == i) {
      document.getElementById(right).classList.add("green")
      document.getElementById("Goodjob").classList.add("show")

On a different note, it would be best to avoid inline handlers, they have way too many problems to be worth using in modern Javascript. Consider attaching the event listeners properly using Javascript instead:

for (const answer of document.querySelectorAll('.answers')) {
  answer.addEventListener('click', () => checkAnswers(answer.id));
}
document.querySelector('button').addEventListener('click', () => plusSlides(1));

let answers = [{
  question: "01 What year is it",
  a: "1850",
  b: "1920",
  c: "*2020",
  d: "1995",
  correct: "c"
}, {
  question: "02 What color is the Sun?",
  a: "*Yellow",
  b: "Red",
  c: "Green",
  d: "Purple",
  correct: "a"
}, {
  question: "03 How do you say 'Hello' in French?",
  a: "I don't know",
  b: "Hi?",
  c: "Paris?",
  d: "*Bonjour",
  correct: "d"
}, {
  question: "What was the color of Napoleon's white horse?",
  a: "*White",
  b: "Grey",
  c: "DarkBlue",
  d: "Rainbow",
  correct: "a"
}];

var slideIndex = 0;
var scoring = 0;
var q = document.getElementById("questionheader");
var a = document.getElementById("a");
var b = document.getElementById("b");
var c = document.getElementById("c");
var d = document.getElementById("d");


showSlides(slideIndex);

function plusSlides(n) {
  slideAnswered = false;
  showSlides(slideIndex = slideIndex + n);
}

function showSlides(n) {
  a.classList.remove("green");
  b.classList.remove("green");
  c.classList.remove("green");

  a.classList.remove("red");

  document.getElementById("Goodjob").classList.remove("show")


  if (n > 3) {
    slideIndex = 3
  }
  if (n < 1) {
    slideIndex = 0
  }

  q.innerHTML = answers[slideIndex].question;
  a.innerHTML = answers[slideIndex].a;
  b.innerHTML = answers[slideIndex].b;

    } else if (choice === right && slideIndex == i) {
      document.getElementById(right).classList.add("green")
      document.getElementById("Goodjob").classList.add("show")

    }
