Elasticsearch - Mappings and Data Types

What is wrong with this Elasticsearch mapping for a numeric field?

{
  "mappings": {
    "properties": {
      "score": {
        "type": "integer",
        "index": "not_analyzed"
      }
    }
  }
}

A'type' should be 'float' instead of 'integer'

B'score' field name is not allowed

C'index' parameter is invalid for numeric fields

Final Answer:
'index' parameter is invalid for numeric fields -> Option C
