Help on tables?
How would you randomly pick something form a table, then print it? I've got this down:
local codes = {"xYxx28","7882qR","99212x","ui1123","sOap12","1337qw","723OpQ"}
for i = 1,#codes do
print(codes[i])
end
So, it would randomly pick one code and print it.

You would want to access one of the keys in the table by using math.random, and going from 1,#Table. This is if you want to choose one randomly from a table. You can look at the example below if you don't understand.
local Food = {"Apple", "Orange", "Pair"} --The Table
local YummyFood = Food[math.random(1,#Food)] --Choose one randomly
print("a/an "..YummyFood.." is my favorite food") --Prints the chosen food

You need something called math.randomthis will generate a random number. It does require some numbers to be added. For example: math.random(minnum, maxnum)
local randomnum = math.random(1, 4) print(randomnum) -- You'll get a random number from 1-4
So in your script you could do:
local codes = {"xYxx28","7882qR","99212x","ui1123","sOap12","1337qw","723OpQ"}
randomnum = math.random(1, #codes) -- A number between 1 and the number of values in the table
print(codes[randomnum])
Then you can use this randomnumber as a directory for the table value. Similar to finding items in a workspace using [] allows you to search through something inside this item with that value.
