What does "Expected assignment or function call" mean? [closed]

This is the code

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function(player)

    local v1 = math.random(1, 255)
    local v2 = math.random(1, 255)
    local v3 = math.random(1, 255)

    game.StarterPlayer.StarterCharacter["Top Hat"]BrickColor = Vector3.new(v1, v2, v3) --error

end)

The code is a bit distorted but you get the idea Stikeys 9 — 3y

You forgot . after ['Top Hat'] as the other guy said, the error means that the debugger excepts you to call it like a function (with brackets) or set new value of it. imKirda 4491 — 3y

The error itself means that what you have just presented to the script is not something it can execute, but it appears you are missing a . after ["Top hat"]
