So i looked this up in the wiki and i still have a question. I am making this server thing and i need the 1 computer to do multiple functions. I am using the parallel api and was wondering if this code is possible…
function 1()
while true do
...
end
end
function 2()
while true do
...
end
end
parallel.waitForAny( 1(), 2() )

Almost, you don't have to call the functions, and function names can't be just numbers.
local function f1()
while true do
...
end
end
local function f2()
while true do
...
end
end
parallel.waitForAny(f1, f2)
Also, you can have as many functions as you want.

Yes, just remember to add a yield (os.pullEvent or something like that) to the functions.
