Lua: If a number is between 1 and 20

Question

I wanted to check if a number is between 1 and 20, this is what I am using:

for x=1,20 do
  if x == 10 then
    print(x)
  end
end

The problem is that, it prints the number 10 instead of printing true or 1 2 3 .. am I doing something wrong here? If so, what’s it? Thanks.

Answer 1

Do you want to check mutiple numbers, or just one like this :

my_number = 10
if my_number >= 1 and my_number <= 20 then
    print 'it is!'
end
