What Is this Error? - the_jl_zone - Mar-03-2023

I have been working on a little graphics presentation using Python that has a ball that bounces up and down using while loops and timers. But for some reason this error message keeps coming up for my MAX_HEIGHT variable. Does anyone have an idea about what's happening here or what I need to change?

Please don't post images. Post your code and error messages in tags. (insert python, insert output)

The error has nothing to do with the MAX_HEIGHT variable. ball.get_y() is a function call. You cannot assign a value to a function call.

In if statement you want comparison ==, not assignment =
