because i really do not understand it and it's the only thing in roblox studio that i have learnt so far , do not understand and i want to do something a bit like this code:
function addition(number1,number2) print (number1+number2) end
addition(3,4)
so that is what i want to do and if you reply please make it simple to read because i only know a handful of stuff about roblox studio and if you can can you please give me some beginner tips
thanks
so basically a Parameter or an Argument is what's inside the two () of a function
so like
function functionName(argument1, argument2)
--argument1 and 2 can only be used inside this function
end
function functionName(argument1)
--Argument 1 can be used here
end
--But not here
So think of it like this...
A person1 (the function caller) wants person2 (the function) to do a simple addition something...But function 2 wants numbers (the arguments) first before doing the addition...Person1 gave (passed) him 5 and 2, so person2 did 5 + 2 and gave *(returned) *him the answer...
so in lua it would look like this
function add(a, b)
return a + b
end
print(add(5, 2))
I know it's confusing... But the simplest way I could explain arguments or parameters is that it's what a function needs
Edit: If you have questions, feel free to ask them
ok that expll[ination was really clear thanks for that!
welcome!
no questions needed!
