The reason why you have an error because Sprite and numbers are not the same type, to do that go back to the function you created it and change the type as number then then the error should be gone now. Here is the accurate code ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/makecode/original/3X/c/0/c0937768a2c12a26f5302996142ca6c863324344.png)
