learning the basics(9,18): UCE0001: ';' expected. Insert a semicolon at the end.

Question

hi i was wondering if any1 can help me i am learning the basics of scripting and following a guide online, i have written everything the same as the guide but when i play my code i receive an error on the print statement on line 9.

this is the error i am getting

Assets/scripting_basics_1.js(9,18): UCE0001: ';' expected. Insert a semicolon at the end.

and this is the code

function Update () { var ammoBoxInt : int = 10;

var ammoBoxFloat : float = 5.567;

var ammoBoxString : String = "ammoBox";

var ammoBoxBoolean : boolean = true;

print {ammoBoxInt};

}

also i am using monoDevelop-unity but in the guide they were using UniSciTe, if that makes any difference. thank you

I think the problem is that you have used curly brackets instead of parentheses (normal brackets) on the print function.

Try editing it to look like:

 function Update () 
 { 
     var ammoBoxInt : int = 10;
     var ammoBoxFloat : float = 5.567;
     var ammoBoxString : String = "ammoBox";
     var ammoBoxBoolean : boolean = true;
     print (ammoBoxInt);
 }
