"error CS0119: Expression denotes a `type', where a `variable', `value' or `method group' was expected" (68688)

Hello everyone. I have an error and i don’t know how can i fix that.

Here is the code!

using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;

public class CameraTest : MonoBehaviour {
	public Transform target;
	public float distance = 10.0f;
	public float xSpeed = 250.0f;
	public float ySpeed = 120.0f;
	public float yMinLimit = -20f;
	public float yMaxLimit = 80f;
	 
	private float x = 0.0f;
	private float y = 0.0f;
	
	
	// Use this for initialization
	void Start () {
		
	
    x = transform.eulerAngles.y;
    y = transform.eulerAngles.x;
		
		if (rigidbody)
		rigidbody.freezeRotation = true;
	}
	
	// Update is called once per frame
	public void LateUpdate () {
		if (target) {
			if(Input.GetMouseButton(1)){

				x += Input.GetAxis("Mouse X") * xSpeed * 0.02f;
				y -= Input.GetAxis("Mouse Y") * ySpeed * 0.02f;
			}
			 
			y = ClampAngle(y, yMinLimit, yMaxLimit);
			
			transform.rotation = Quaternion.Euler(y, x, 0);
			transform.position = transform.rotation * Vector3(0.0, 0.0, -distance) + target.position;
			 

		}
	}
		
	static float ClampAngle (float angle, float min, float max) {
	    if (angle < -360)
	       angle += 360;
	    if (angle > 360)
	       angle -= 360;
	    return Mathf.Clamp (angle, min, max);
	}
}

and the error is that

error CS0119: Expression denotes a `type', where a `variable', `value' or `method group' was expected

It’s C#, so you need the new keyword when you create an object;

     transform.position = transform.rotation * (new Vector3(0.0, 0.0, -distance)) + target.position;

or as alternative use one of the constants:

     transform.position = transform.rotation * (Vector3.forward* -distance) + target.position;

Line 39 should be:

transform.position = transform.rotation * new Vector3(0.0f, 0.0f, -distance) + target.position;

The error message tells you where the problem is in the code.
