wp comment author dont refere to author page

I want to link the author name shown in comments to the author page. for ex:

bla bla bla written by user.

if I clicked the author link I want to go to ../author/user/ page.

my code is: 

<a href="<?php echo home_url() ?>/author/<?php comment_author($comment); ?>"><?php comment_author($comment); ?></a>

it shows the author's first and last name/display name. but I want to show nickname. If I clicked the author name the output is:

../author/user%20user
Solution

    <?php echo get_the_author_link(); ?>
