What is "<eof>"?

Asked by 10 years ago

When I script, I constantly see this. I would like to know what it means? I would like to know what it is trying to tell me when it shows.

'eof' basically stands for 'end of file' (some people get confused with 'end of function')

A error like this:

Monday Apr 28 17:25:56 2014 - Workspace.Script:3: 'end' expected (to close 'while' at line 1) near '<eof>'

"Monday Apr 28 17:25:56 2014" - time of the message

"Workspace.Script" - Full name of the script (ie., which script to find the error in) "3" - the line with the error

"'end' expected (to close 'while' at line 1) near '&lt;eof>'" - the error message (eof stands for end of file, so 'end' is expected at the end of the script)

There is a page on the ROBLOX wiki where it explains these types of errors (where this example is also displayed)
