What are For Loops?

For Loops are a fundamental control structure in programming that allow you to repeat a block of code a specific number of times. This is incredibly useful in many situations, such as iterating through a list of items or performing a task a set number of times.

In simple terms, a for loop lets you say, "Hey, computer, do this set of instructions this many times." This is a powerful tool for automating repetitive tasks in your Roblox scripts.
