while true do
n = 0
print(n + 1)
end
What I want to do is constantly add 1 to 0 (n) so it will be like 1 2 3 4 5 6, etc... and it will keep going. I forgot how to do this and just need some little help. When I run the script above it will just print 1 because its only added to n(0) 1 time. It's a little hard to explain but i hope you guys know what I mean.
There's 2 issues with this. First, you're redefining n as 0 each time the loop restarts, so any changes to the variable wouldn't affect the next loop. Second, you're never adding onto n, simply printing what n+1 would return, which doesn't change the variable itself. Also, you may want to add a wait() at the end of the loop to prevent it from freezing roblox studio.
n = 0 --this creates the variable and sets it to 0 once
while true do
n = n + 1 --redefines n as n+1
print(n) --prints the new value of n
wait() --stops the loop from freezing
end
that's an infinite loop, you need to use wait
Use this code
local n = 0
while true do
wait(1) -- change it to set the speed with which it increases
n = n + 1
print(n)
end
or could just do 'while wait(1) do --code end'
You could do it like this using a while loop
n = 0
while(n <= 20) do
print("Value of n is: ", n)
n = n + 1
end
The above code prints from 0 to 20 until reaching 20 and it will no longer be true.
or using a for loop:
for i = 0,20,1 do
print("value of i is: ", i)
end
Above code also prints from 0 to 20.
You have the right idea but there are a few problems in your code:
You need to add a wait to your code so that the computer will wait a bit between adding 1 to n each time
You need to add the line n = n + 1 so that each repetition of the code the value of n will increase by 1.
Put the n = 0 outside of the loop so that n will not be repeatedly reset to 0
The finished code should look something like this:
n = 0 --the starting value for n
while true do wait (1) -- the loop will repeat once every second
n = n + 1 -- increases the value of n by 1
print (n) -- prints the value of n
end

Your studio probably crashes because of the inf loop.
