XNA: int as Vector2 so i can move sprite

Question

I am really new XNA programming, and i am having a big problem. I have a Vector2, spritePosistion, that controls what position the sprite is at, now i want to move it by 1, every time that a player hits the w button, it is having a problem 1 being and int and spritePosistion being a Vector2. So am i doing it wrong or is there a way of getting these things to work together. Here is the code

if (Keyboard.GetState().IsKeyDown(Keys.W))
{
    // This is the problem 
    spritePosition += 1;
}

Answer 1

It depends, you're being awfully vague in your question. For instance, in which direction do you want to move? A few examples...

• Right spritePosition.X += 1

• Left spritePosition.X -= 1

• Down spritePosition.Y += 1

• Up spritePosition.Y -= 1

Answer 2

You said you want to "move the sprite by one" - but in which direction? Try

spritePosition.X += 1;

or

spritePosition.Y += 1;

for X or Y movement.
