One step at a time

Luau runs these instructions from top to bottom. Predict which message will appear first, then run the code and compare your prediction with Output.

Your task

Observed-output goal: display "Ready", "Go", in that order. Predict the first message, then press Run code. Completion checks these outputs and value types only; the example's structure is an experiment, not a required solution.

Lines must stay in order. Spelling, capitalization and spaces inside a message matter.

What this exercise checks

Actual Output · exact lines and order · extra output forbidden.

Successful execution is required. A compile error, runtime error or execution limit never completes this task.

Whitespace, matching single or double quotes, and different variable names are allowed. Output-only tasks accept any valid Luau solution meeting the displayed result and value types. Construct tasks use the stated straight-line form.
