LocalScript:3: ')' expected near ',' - How to fix?
Hi. I'm trying to make a real-time clock for use in my game, but it says
Players.LuckyCGT.PlayerGui.Clock.LocalScript:3: ')' expected near ','
This is the code:
01 | while wait()do |
02 | local Data = os.date("t") |
03 | local Months = ("Jan","Feb","Mar","Apr","May","Jun","Jul","Aug","Sep","Oct","Nov","Dec") |
04 | local Date = script.Parent:WaitForChild("Date") |
05 | local Time = script.Parent:WaitForChild("Time") |
06 | for i,v in pairs(Months)do |
07 | if Data.month == i then |
08 | Date.Text = v.."/"..Data.day.."/"..Data.year |
09 | end |
10 | end |
11 | Time.Text = Data.hour.."t"..Data.min.."t"..Data.sec |
12 | end |
The comma that is "broken" is the one between "Jan" and "Feb". I've tried putting a bracket where the comma is on line 3, but that still doesn't do anything.
Any help would be appreciated.

It appears you want to make Months into a table. To do this you must use curly braces { } and not parenthesis. Below is the modified script
01 | while wait() do |
02 | local Data = os.date("t") |
03 | local Months = {"Jan","Feb","Mar","Apr","May","Jun","Jul","Aug","Sep","Oct","Nov","Dec"} |
04 | local Date = script.Parent:WaitForChild("Date") |
05 | local Time = script.Parent:WaitForChild("Time") |
06 | for i,v in pairs(Months)do |
07 | if Data.month == i then |
08 | Date.Text = v.."/"..Data.day.."/"..Data.year |
09 | end |
10 | end |
11 | Time.Text = Data.hour.."t"..Data.min.."t"..Data.sec |
12 | end |
