Question by TexasFunk101 · Feb 28, 2016 at 08:38 PM · c#

C# Expression denotes a 'value', where a 'method group' was expected

So I am trying to make a simple calculator and I keep getting this error with a specific line of code.

Here's the code

 void Calculate(){
         intX1 = Mathf.RoundToInt(Mathf.Sqrt(System.Convert.ToSingle((intB * intB) - (4(intA)(intC) )))); //Error is here
         Debug.Log (intX1);
     }

I convert the int to float so I can use Mathf.Sqrt and then back to an Int for a final value but I keep getting an error.

error CS0119: Expression denotes a`value' , where a`method group' was expected

Your problem is

 (4(intA)(intC) )

You have to include the operators

 (4*intA*intC)  or (4 *(intA * intC)) 

depending on what you are trying to do.

Hello, @TexasFunk101.

To multiply, we have to use the *operator. This won't work: int i = (4)(4); // = 8 but this will: int i = (4) * (4); // = 8.

In your function Calculate, the error is caused by: (4(intA)(intC) ). To resolve it, just add the *operator. The result is: (4 * (intA) * (intC) ).

Here is the fixed version of function Calculate:

     void Calculate() {
         intX1 = Mathf.RoundToInt( Mathf.Sqrt( System.Convert.ToSingle( ( intB * intB ) - ( 4 * ( intA ) * ( intC ) ) ) ) );
         
         Debug.Log( intX1 );
     }
