I know in Python you can do (example)

print ("The amount of seconds is:", seconds) -- and it will print The amount of seconds is: and then the value of seconds.

I have seen it been done in Lua before too using .. something .. I think but I can't remember. Thanks

print ("The amount of seconds is: " .. seconds)

This is what you want to do.

The literal name of joining values to create a string is called string concatenation. Just wanted to put that out there. Spongocardo 1991 — 9y
