local VotingUIs = {
script.Parent:WaitForChild("Classic"),
script.Parent:WaitForChild("Combat"),
script.Parent:WaitForChild("Double Killers")

for i, v in ipairs(VotingUIs) do
print(v)

using both pairs and ipairs work here, but i want to know which is better to use in this situation.
even though the forum says that ipairs() is for arrays, pairs() seem to work for arrays as well
Truthfully, it boils down to personal choice here. Both in pairs and in ipairs will work for an array, but only in pairs works for dictionaries.
If you want something faster you could use a for i = 1,n loop and index the table using that like so:
local table = { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 }
for i = 1, #table, 1 do
print(table[i])
end
Again, they accomplish the same thing it all boils down to aesthetic.

they would be the same for that i think. pretty sure ipairs and pairs are the same but ipairs stops when something is nil https://scriptinghelpers.org/questions/2725/difference-between-pairs-ipairs-and-next
