Functions

Functions are sets of instructions that can be used multiple times in a script. Once defined, a function can be executed through a command or triggered through an event.

Defining Functions

A basic function declaration includes the function keyword followed by the function name and a pair of parentheses (()). Since the function’s body will be a block of code, it must be closed with the end keyword.

local function addNumbers()
 
end

-- To call function run addNumbers()

Between the () and end is where commands and other code make up the function body. These commands will be executed when the function is called:

local function addNumbers()
	-- Function body
	print("Function called!")
end
