    Sorry for the delay on this video. The next one is coming soon. What do you want to learn in future episodes? (Beginner stuff, not too advanced yet). If you see no comments, it's because they're held for review first.

    Who else notices how the farther you get into the scripting series, the less views each video gets? It feels like a competition to see who drops out and who goes on because they understand.

      I went to look at that when i clicked on this video out of curiosity before i even saw this comment lmao. I would say its because each video is progressively newer in the series but you can see that it goes from 220,000 views on the first episode to 80,000

    I got it when he said: all we are doing, is passing some data to the function, and the function is applying it to the properties of this part. (in order)
    what he actually means is that the () of the parameter and the function are linked. I give example if you don't understand( go to 14:00 if you didn't got there). the arrow means linked:
    name --> part.Name --> Hamburger
    IsAnchored --> part.Anchored --> False
    reflectance --> part.Reflectance --> 1
    I hope this makes things more clear to you who took the time to reed this.
    also Alvin keep up the good work!

    This is honestly the best videos (or series) for scripting. Want to know why? First Alvinblox doesn't say how to do one thing in particular and just give you the code for it and teaches you want to do, for example like a video about how to create rain they give you the script and you copy and paste it down. What happens here is that you learn the basics for scripting then you get to know how to do what you want and pretty much everything else. Secondly everything here is very obvious and clear of what to do, Alvin Blox describes what everything is and gives more information about it in notes on the screen. Not to mention it's 1080p so you can actually see what is on the screen and not trying to look what it says, like " huh does that say part.Parent" lol. Lastly it's interesting, I don't want to just stop the video and not care about it because it not interesting because it is interesting! That's all I had to say but just thanks a lot for helping me learn how to script better ( not phenomenal because we're only on the 7th episode yet but better)

  • @domtu7129
    @domtu7129 2 роки тому +8

    quick overview:
    An argument is the Value you are going to send to the function, while a parameter is the sent value that you are going to use in the function.
    The reason why you want to use a function and send values through it, is because functions are dynamic (dynamic means changeable), while just writing the code out normally is fixed (you cant change the values after its defined).

    For anyone struggling with the parameter and argument (name) and ("partnumberone") etc..
    Just think of (name) in the same way you would X in an equation. X will be told to equal "partnumberone" or whatever the Argument is
    the parameter will be the variable equal to the Argument

    • @Robin-50
      @Robin-50 2 роки тому +1

      For people who don't know equations they need to read this: The parameter is a set of variables which are yet to have a value. Then you make an argument (arguments are the values that will be sent later on as in like, kind of used to send data) containing the values you want for your parameters. For instance like when you reference game.Workspace.Part.Anchored = false that is a boolean as in it had a false value (as in booleans have true or false values). So you just gave it a value. So just like arguments you can add a value and tell the argument to contain the values. Then the argument will make an for to pick up the values. Like the first value of the argument will be sent to the first parameter, the second argument value will be send to the second value, and... that's all I can say!

    The way i find it easy to remember the stuff in this video is to not only write it down in like windows notepad, but also practicing in studio using ur knowledge. For example, after watching episode 6 i wrote 3 functions that go together. One makes a brick with my friend's name on it, one sets the velocity of that brick, and one unanchores the brick for 2.5 seconds and then sets the position again as anchored. if you run the creation, then the velocity, then the anchoring, it makes a falling loop :D

      Incredibly similar. Once you get the syntax down the concepts are very similar from language to language. Although I must say, coming from Java and C++/C# it feels weird not putting a “;” at the end of a statement, using curly brackets to define a functions contents or needing to list the variable type when creating a new variable.
      Just stuff you get used to from language to language.

  • @Darksnake87
    @Darksnake87 4 роки тому +2

    if you are still confused by this. its fine i was confused at first. What Alvin is trying to say is that in | function generatePart(name) inside the () it could be named anything if you wanna name it burger. pizza, mouse you could. After that you have to figure what you want it to be as. for example if i want name (which is inside unction generatePart(name) ) to be the anchored ill put it as the anchor by doing | game.Workspace.Part.Anchored = name | What i did is set name to be the anchor of my part which is "Part" then you do name(false or true) true so it stays anchored or false so it can fall.
    you can also set its Transparency | game.Workspace.Part.Transparency = name
    name(0.5) (what i did is set its Transparency to the amount i put which was 0.5)
    you can also do this with material and other of its property like its color to
    you can do this alot aslong as you put a coma at the end of the sentence. a coma is ,
    if you have questions about funtions. feel free to comment
    also alvin keep doing what you are doing man.

      yes lua is a very simple lang. if you have experience in python then it will be very simple. i am learning javascript at the moment and then decided to learn a little lua and it is very similar since they are both scripting langs, its just that the syntax is more similar to python

    The last time I looked at a script. I was so confused by words that were made up and I thought to myself "there isnt any way that these words used are part of any program language. But now i looked again and they were placed in a function before being used and it all makes sense now lmao
