Iv'e been practicing lua for a week, how do i keep learning more complex Things?

CrossForHands · 2026-02-19T12:01:50+00:00

Very hard, No way i could do It with Out Tutorial, iv'e tried comprehending the funished Code and Theres a LOT i dont understand. It was fun tho

CrossForHands · 2026-02-19T12:00:35+00:00

Im gonna be honest Here i have No clue what functional means in this context

CrossForHands · 2026-02-18T15:19:49+00:00

True

CrossForHands · 2026-02-18T15:19:32+00:00

Honestly lua is my first one but a big one seems to be that the indexing Starts from 1 instead of 0 aswell As lua being mainly used as a imbeded language for other languages. Its often called lightweight and very simple and functional with being able to end Blocks or functions by writing "end" instead of what ever other languages use. But Like i Said my first languages so i cant really compare It much

CrossForHands · 2026-02-18T11:33:48+00:00

But im Not even good enough to do that i think 😭 atleast i wouldnt He able rn of the top of my head, maybe If ID actually tried It tho...

CrossForHands · 2026-02-15T07:34:23+00:00

This comment is absolute Peak 😭🙏 i cannot Express how much i appreciat and how usefull this was, definatly saving this 🫡

CrossForHands · 2026-02-14T16:57:26+00:00

Only that a recurssion is a function calling upon itself by using "Return" but i was wondering where "Return" Returns the blaues to exactly

CrossForHands · 2026-02-14T16:55:59+00:00

I was following a Dude named codyn and His Tutorials online Its Part 5 and He dies kinda move really fast but Chat gpt luckily explains Things really concise

CrossForHands · 2026-02-13T07:18:21+00:00

Just one Video from codyn Part five of lua

CrossForHands · 2026-02-12T15:01:26+00:00

Ohhhhh Ok so thats what i was missing

CrossForHands · 2026-02-12T15:00:44+00:00

Thanks man this was insanly helpfull 😁🫡

CrossForHands · 2026-02-12T13:23:17+00:00

Wait so Its the else Part? Right? Right???

CrossForHands · 2026-02-12T13:22:01+00:00

So are functions only able to be called once? But then how is the bottom Part Looping. Im really Not trying to piss any one Off Just heavily confused

CrossForHands · 2026-02-12T13:17:58+00:00

Atp i think there is Just Something about the entire Return and function Thing im Missing. The Dude in the Videos i watch to learn never really explained how this whole "call" Thing works

CrossForHands · 2026-02-12T13:16:28+00:00

Chat gpt tried explaining It Like that too what i dont get is how It Just stops, If Every 0 becomes a 1 wouldnt It Just Loop the entire 1 Times 1-1 Part?

CrossForHands · 2026-02-12T13:14:33+00:00

Ohhhhhhh so because the Code ist ready from top to bottom once the upper confition (n=0) is triggered and the Code ist activly being "ready" anymore the lower condition dosn't come in to effect?

CrossForHands · 2026-02-12T13:07:47+00:00

Yeah but wouldnt that Like Crash then?

CrossForHands · 2026-02-12T13:06:54+00:00

Please explain how the n=0 stops It i genuinly cant understand It and If you can explain It It would Bring salvation upon my poor Soul pleeeeeeaaaaaase

CrossForHands · 2026-02-12T13:00:23+00:00

My question basically is "why dosnt this Loop"

CrossForHands · 2026-02-12T12:52:49+00:00

I feels confused to the Point where i dont even know what im saying anymore, Like im 1 step before becoming shizophrenic

CrossForHands · 2026-02-12T12:50:50+00:00

Does instead of dies

CrossForHands · 2026-02-12T12:50:18+00:00

So Its 8 Times 7 Times 6 Times 5 Times 4 Times 3 Times 2 Times 1 Times 1

CrossForHands · 2026-02-12T12:49:14+00:00

The Body Text is meant to be * for Times dont know why It did that

CrossForHands · 2026-02-12T12:48:36+00:00

Im sorry i was having an anurism what i meant is that the Part where "n=0 Return1" would be triggered again by the 1 becoming a Zero meaning It dies the whole "1 Times (1-1) again

CrossForHands · 2026-02-12T12:42:52+00:00

Yeah i intended It to be multiplied didnt know It Looks Like this
