This is what I've done so far, I have a table called music and what I'm trying to do is choose a value from the table and have it chosen randomly and that ID from the table would be then replace the soundID that's currently there. How would I do this?
music = {"639026725","329574631","604164309",}
while wait(.5) do
script.Sound.SoundId = "rbxassetid://"..#music.math.random(1,3)
script.Sound:Play()
wait(5)
end
The length operator you are using returns the length of a table, as stated here: http://wiki.roblox.com/index.php?title=Operator#Miscellaneous
You're doing the right thing, you've just forgotten about indexing, which can be used to grab something using square brackets. Here's the fixed version!
Oh, and you accidentally included a comma at your last id in the table.
music = {
"639026725",
"329574631",
"604164309"
} --This type of layout of an array is optional, I just like it because it looks clean
while wait(0.5) do
script.Sound.SoundId = "rbxassetid://" .. music[math.random(1, #music)]
script.Sound:Play()
wait(5)
end
Note how I used '#music' instead of '3'. I did this so that you don't need to keep updating how many ids are in the table since the length operator returns the length of an array.

Well, the brackets for a table indicate the position & return the data from that position, to be more technical. :P
I didn't really know how to explain that part :P Thanks for giving the correct function of it though!
Np. :)
