Does Roblox Lua have something other scripts have?
so I haven't really did anything because roblox studio crashes on me. So I was thinking if you can do variable += 1 like in a script
x = 0
while true do
x += 1
end
instead of
for x = 0, ? do
print('idk")
end

Note that "Roblox Lua" is not its own language; rather Lua with disabled libraries and some modified functions + Roblox API User#24403 69 — 5y

No += increment is not possible, neither is ++
you will have to do x = x + 1;
As for your second example, I don't know what language that is from. but the ? by itself holds no value in Lua.
I recommend you take a look at syntax of Lua.

+= is an increment exclusive to Python 2 DeceptiveCaster 3761 — 5y

MANY languages support `x +=` as a shortcut to `x = x +`. It's odd that you'd pick specifically Python 2, when Python 3 also supports the feature. fredfishy 833 — 5y
