As far as I see, their exactly the same and I shouldn't be getting this error.

Look at your arguments that you are passing in.

You are passing in 2 integers after your double, and the method you are trying to use only takes 1 integer after the double (too many parameters :))

I swear I took that out D: But, you were right; program works like it should.


Thanks!
