Hello!

I am Steve and i registrated here to ask some questions about jass.
I have already Jassnewgen pack and i want to learn how to code my own jass code.
So i tryed already some one line long scripts but i don't know how to use the jass librarys like this:

library GetTerrainZ /* v1.0.0.0
********************************************************************
*
* function GetTerrainZ takes real x, real y returns real
*
********************************************************************/

globals
private constant location L = Location(0, 0)
endglobals

function GetTerrainZ takes real x, real y returns real
call MoveLocation(L, x, y)
return GetLocationZ(L)
endfunction

endlibrary

if someone could help me in this i would realy appreciate it.
Okay i understand so far that these library snippets are short functions that i can call after i insert it into my code.
The question is:
Where must i place this code, when i wish to use it?

The idea is that you place this snippets in a GUI trigger.

How to do that? just create a new trigger, name it with the library name (in this case GetTerrainZ, or something you can identify clearly) and then convert it into custom code (Edit > Convert to Custom Text). There, you CnP the code snippet and save the map. That's all

Thank you the quick answer.

I thought that was more complicated.
I will test it out today.
