[SOLVED] How can I call the last two values of a table?
I fixed it on my own, but thanks for the support. None of the answers really helped so I made my own workaround that works perfect.

Yes, that is easy. To call something in a table you need to do something like this:
mytable = {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,1337, "Roblox"}
print(mytable[10]) --Should print "1337".
Now to call the last thing in the table do this:
mytable = {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,1337, "Roblox"}
print(mytable[#mytable]) --Print the 11th one since there are only 11 of them.
To do the second to last one do this:
mytable = {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,1337, "Roblox"}
print(mytable[(#mytable-1)]) --Should print "1337", 11-1= 10 which is the 2nd to last one on the table.
There, that is all!

Let's say the table is constantly being added to, new numbers each time at the end, and I want to print() the last two every time. Only one would be added at a time. How would I call them THEN, same method? iiFirestorm 5 — 9y

Still problems. It doesn't seem to find the second to last, but does find the last. table.insert(fs, table.maxn(fs)+#fs-1) iiFirestorm 5 — 9y

local tab = {0,1,2}
for i = 1,10,1 do
table.insert(tab,1,i)
local last = tab[#tab] --#table returns the length of the table as an integer
local secondlast = tab[#tab - 1]
local first = tab[1]
print(last, secondlast, first)
wait(1)
end

should work for a loop aquathorn321 858 — 9y
