Cannot modify the return value because it is not a variable

Question

I have a class called BaseRobot:

  var robot2 = new BaseRobot(0, 0, 0);
  private Point mHome;
  public Point Home
  {
      get { return mHome;         


        

Answer 1

You need to set the Home property directly, usually best to create a new Point object...

robot2.Home = new System.Drawing.Point(1, 5);//x, y

Also, in order to allow that you need to apply a set accessor to your Home property...

public Point Home
{
    get { return mHome; }
    set { mHome = value; }
}
