I would like to know how can a script find if a value exists in a Lua table, something like

luatable = {"abc", "cba", "bab"}
--example: wanted to know if something in workspace with a name of any of those values exists..

How can I do it?

You Could Use A For Loop To Search Through The Descendants Of Workspace Or Whatever Your Looking For

Example

local Table = {"abc","bca","cab"}

for i,v in pairs(workspace:GetDescendants()) do -- Will Go Through Everything in the workspace
    if Table[v.Name] then -- If the name of the object is in the table
        -- Do Rest
    end
end
