I am using this code to make my ants move in all different direction {o-0=up, 1=down, etc.} but it keeps coming up w/ an error.
int move;
public void init()
{
move = 3;
while ( ( move < 0 ) || ( move > 3 ) )
{
(int)(Math.random() * move );
}
}
error message :::::::C:\Documents and Settings\Ashia\Desktop\INSY 3300\Homework\hw3.java:22: not a statement
(int)(Math.random() * move );
^
1 error
:::::::

Try assigning the cast value to a variable. That's what the compiler's looking for.
By the way, you'll soon get a message from one of the sheriffs that your name violates the JavaRanch rules for names. You may want to change that before they 'cuff you.

Hi Julie,
You should assign the new computed value back to your 'move' variable. If you don't, your ants won't get a new movement
