Find last used row and then select the cell below it in Google sheets
I am new to google sheets and to java.
Stuff I used to do easily in excel humbles me in Google sheets.
I am trying to find the last row used in a range and then activate a cell below it.
function SortCleared() {
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActive();
ss.getRange('A18:J218').activate()
.sort([{column: 8, ascending: true}, {column: 1, ascending: true}]);
var Avals = ss.getRange("A18:A218").getValues();
var ALast = Avals.filter(String).length;
Logger.log(ALast);
ss.getRange(ALast,1,0,0);
};
Logger is returning 2.0 for ALast
error I get is "Cannot find method getRange(number,number,number,number)"
Also I tried just ss.getRange(ALast,1); with same result.
Any suggestions?

Was able to get it to work with this:
function SortCleared() {
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActive();
ss.getRange('A18:J218').activate()
.sort([{column: 8, ascending: true}, {column: 1, ascending: true}]);
var Avals = ss.getRange("A18:A218").getValues();
var ALast = Avals.filter(String).length;
var ALast= ALast +18;
ss.setActiveRange(ss.getRange('A'+ ALast));
};
A follow up question:
is there a way to add the 18 to ALast without the extra line?
