hello, Professor Mandi Wise wrote a book \<\<Build a Distributed GraphQL API with  
Apollo Federation 2 and Apollo Server\>\>, I try to update the code of the chapter account, but I got the error message:"  
return new \_GraphQLError.GraphQLError(`Syntax Error: ${description}`, {  
^  
GraphQLError: Syntax Error: Expected Name, found “(”.  
at syntaxError (C:\Users\takayama\Desktop\auth3\accounts\node\_modules\graphql\error\syntaxError.js:15:10)  
at Parser.expectToken …  
"  
I am not able to continue to update it, if anybody can resolve the mistake of coding for the updating, please help me, thank you very much. the code is the following:
