error CS1519: Unexpected symbol `5' in class, struct, or interface member declaration

Hello,
I'm new to Unity and coding with C# and I'm getting an error with my code. I'm trying to assign a variable "alphavalue" a value but Unity seems to give me an error about an unexpected symbol in the value. Can someone please help me. I've tried everything I could think of.
This is my code:

Code (CSharp):

1. using System.Collections;
2. using System.Collections.Generic;
3. using UnityEngine;
4.  
5. public class Fade : MonoBehaviour {
6.  
7.     public CanvasGroup cg;
8.     public decimal alphavalue = 0,05;
9.  
10.     // Use this for initialization
11.     void Start () {
12.         cg.alpha = 0;
13.     }
14.  
15.     // Update is called once per frame
16.     void Update() {
17.         if (cg.alpha < 1) {
18.             cg.alpha = cg.alpha + alphavalue;
19.         }
20.     }
21. }

and here's my error:

Assets/Fade.cs(8,36): error CS1519: Unexpected symbol `5' in class, struct, or interface member declaration

Can someone please help me? Thanks.

 

I think it's a problem that I have a decimal number as the value of the variable, but I'm not sure. Can someone confirm?

 

You are using the European style for a floating point number. You need to use

0.05

, not

0,05

.

 

the decimal will also require an 'm' suffix, I believe.

 

Oops, missed that bit.
