    Default gridworld error: " ';' expected"

    Here is my code and as you can guess, I get the above error. Thanks for the answer. I'd really appreciate if you could also explain why gridworld has such a low functionality level. Is this a learning thing? I know I wouldn't be able to do as much as an expert would as a student, but there doesn't seem to be a lot to do in gridworld in terms of tweaking.

     
    Location loc1 = new Location( 10, 3 );
     
    Location loc2 = loc1.getAdjacentLocation( Location.WEST );
     
    Location loc1.getAdjacentLocation(SOUTH);
     
    Location loc1.getAdjacentLocation(NORTHEAST);
     
    (new Location(2, 5)).getAdjacentLocation(NORTHEAST);
     
    (new Location(2, 5)).getAdjacentLocation(52);
     
    (new Location(2,5)).getAdjacentLocation(0);
     
    System.out.println( "loc1 = " + loc1 );
     
    System.out.println( "loc2 = " + loc2 );

    I don't know gridworld, but I know that the following is not a legal Java statement:

    Location loc1.getAdjacentLocation(SOUTH); // times 2

    How would I do that then? What other options do I have in terms of a line of code?

    I'm not sure what you mean to do with those statements, but a proper form would be:

    Type variableName = methodName();

    What you have is missing something.
