error message in loop plz help

Projects Programming

#include<Servo.h>

Servo myServo;

int flexPin = A0; // analog input 0

int switchPin = 2; // digital input 2

void setup(){
myServo.attach(9); // connect myServo to pin digital pin 9

pinMode(switchPin, INPUT); // set my switch as an input

}

void loop(){

int flexVal = analogRead(flexPin);

flexVal = map (0, 1023, 0 ,179);

myServo.write(flexVal);

}

keeps saying error and highlighting "flexVal = map (0, 1023, 0 179)

Just "error"?

im srry it actually says
"C:\Program Files\arduino extracted files\arduino-1.0.4\hardware\arduino\cores\arduino/Arduino.h:209: error: too few arguments to function 'long int map(long int, long int, long int, long int, long int)'
sketch_may16b:20: error: at this point in file"

I am very new to all this so if you could explain what exactly this means I would really appreciate the help

In looking at the cpp code, it appears that the map() function takes 5 arguments, not 4.

thank you that makes sense. I changed it to

void loop(){

int flexVal = analogRead(flexPin);

flexVal = map (flexVal, 0, 1023, 0 ,179);

myServo.write(flexVal);

}

and it worked.

I appreciate the help thank u
