Dont understand

I have been going through this course not sure what all the numbers in the parameters mean. I was hoping that it'll come up later, but it never did. Can I please get help on this topic.

:mailbox_with_mail: I got your request.

The parameter meanings vary with what they are used on.

For creating a Map, the parameters determine the width and height of the map that will be created.

For a Point or a MapLocation, the parameters determine the location on the map (as "x" and "y" coordinates) that these items are associated with.

Does that make it clear?

These values are just unitless counts. I suppose you could say the units are "number of cells".
