Series Description
In computer science, loops are a common feature in many scripts, often used to repeat sets of code. This series will cover two of the most common loops: for and while loops.
Objectives and Prerequisites
| Learning Objectives | Understand situations where loops are useful as opposed to alternative forms of writing a script. Be able to write out for and while loops, while identifying the syntax for both. |
| Prerequisites | Have a general understanding of variables in Lua. |
