Look, I'm not trying to make it short and sweet, I'm trying to learn. And if I have to code a lot of lines, so be it! You'll use your way, and I'll use mine.

Loops aren't bad - so feel free to use them. I don't know why anyone would think loops are bad, they are fundamental programming concept. Does your computer shut down after you type one command or run one program? :)/>/> No, because they use loops.

while true do -- start of a loop
print (a) -- prints to the screen the value of a
a = a+1 -- makes a larger by one every loop
end -- end of the loop

Yeah, that still doesn't crash your computer, it crashes Minecraft, it will give an 'Minecraft ran out of memory' error.I know only the basic's and I heard that loops were bad, so I didn't use them.

If you call the same function in a function you will eventually run out of memory - but not if you use loops properly.

What is the current max stack size?By computer, I was thinking the minecraft computer, not the actual computer. It will eventually "crash" as the stack has been filled up.

Ahhh ok interesting…However I tried using some printing functions to print the stack number and it actually varies between 238-242 but I believe it's meant to be 256
