Unable to set delay between each flash of LED

Projects Programming

I cannot upload the programming without getting an 'assignment of function void delay (long unsigned int)'.

I have change the word in the variables using "shortT, time, dit," etc for the 'int'. Example
'int shortT=300;' The error message is below:

Start by reading this.

For actual help, post your code.

delay() is a built-in function so you cannot use it as a variable. Rename your variable from 'delay' to 'somethingelse'
