"Expected Table, got object" Error?
So I'm new to scripting, and just watched a vid on the for i,v in pairs thing last night. I tried using it, but it won't do anything. The output says something about Expected Table, got Object?
Here is my code:
1 | local Part = game.Workspace.Part |
2 | for i,v in pairs(Part) do |
3 | v.Transparency = 1 |
4 | end |
But it isn't working. Please answer if you have any idea whats wrong, as i'm new to scripting and any help is acceptable

The code expects there to be a table inside of the parentheses after pairs. Instead of providing a table you are giving it a part of the workspace. If you are trying to make all the parts in the workspace turn invisible then you might want to do this:
1 | for i,v in pairs(game.Workspace:GetChildren()) do -- the getchildren method returns a table of all the children of an object |
2 | end |
otherwise if you are trying to turn all the parts in a model invisible then you will need to call the :GetChildren() method on that model to receive a table with its children. I hope this helps and have a great day scripting!
