If you see a message like this, approach it systematically.
There are two cases, either you intended an array conversion or you
did not intend it. Clearly the compiler
thinks you intended it.

Either way, you need to find out by reading your text book
what an array conversion looks like (not hard since it is
the same as any other type conversion). 

Now if you did not intend an array conversion, then figure
out what you did intend clearly, and look up how to achieve
it (if you guessed, you obviously guessed wrong).

If you DID intend an array conversion, then look up the
rules to see why this operand is not legal for an array
conversion.

That's the sort of way to approach figuring out something
like this on your own.

You may well find it helpful to run one of the online tutorials if you
are feeling generally confused by what
you are doing.
