Transform.position

Description

The world space position of the Transform.

The position property of a GameObject’s Transform, which is accessible in the Unity Editor and through scripts. Alter this value to move a GameObject. Get this value to locate the GameObject in 3D world space.

using UnityEngine;

public class ExampleClass : MonoBehaviour
{
    //movement speed in units per second
    private float movementSpeed = 5f;

    void Update()
    {
        //get the Input from Horizontal axis
        float horizontalInput = Input.GetAxis("Horizontal");
        //get the Input from Vertical axis
        float verticalInput = Input.GetAxis("Vertical");

        //update the position
        transform.position = transform.position + new Vector3(horizontalInput * movementSpeed * Time.deltaTime, verticalInput * movementSpeed * Time.deltaTime, 0);

        //output to log the position change
        Debug.Log(transform.position);
    }
}

The example gets the Input from Horizontal and Vertical axes, and moves the GameObject up/down or left/right by changing its position.
