I suck at this

im trying to make my mining turtle just mine like… normal and i cant really do it. just trying to make him do as big as a minecraft person can be, i have this

turtle.dig()
turtle.forward()
turtle.digdown()
turtle.down()
end

and i get bios:206: [string "mining"] :5: '<eof>' expected
(btw im a big newb at this)

Remove the "end", you don't need to put it at the end of the program.
end is just to close blocks (if, while, for, etc).

after i removed End i got (Mining:3: attempt to call nil) after it dug forward and moved forward…

local length = 10
for i=1,length do
  turtle.digDown()
  turtle.dig()
  turtle.forward()
end
turtle.digDown()

Should work for ya. Remember, capitalization is important, and the default function names use camelCase.

thanks

besides the end, the reason why you got an error on line 3 is because digdown() should be digDown()

Have to watch capitalization in lua
