How do you print a table sent via a remote event?

Hi there, does anyone know how I could use the table called "Names" in a print from a remote event? This is what the local script sends. Thanks :)

RemoteEvent:FireServer("ListOfNames", Names)

RemoteEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(plr, Table) print(table.concat(Table, ', ')) end) something like that <--

you can just literate through the table from the server if that's what your looking for, like this:

--server

RemoteEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player,ListOfNames,table)
	if ListOfNames == "ListOfNames" then
	for i,v in pairs(table) do
		print(i,v) --prints the index and value of it
	end
	end
end)

, also you cant directly print a table, so you could just loop over it using a generic for loop
