Hello. This is my first post and I am fairly new to lua so pardon me if this fix is quite easy.

I was trying to create a menu for computercraft so i could use it in later programs. Like most newcomers, I took to tutorials for help. But when I try it to run, I get an Error.

Error: bios : 14 : [string "mobs"] : 5 : unexcepted Symbol

Erm, is there the "2." Part writen in it? If there isnt the "2." On the 5th line, its just the fas=ct that the right side of the computer doesnt have a monitor.

That is what should I Change now?

If you do indeed have the commands numbered like

1.
2.
3.
4.
5.

Then you need to remove those.

If it still doesnt work then that means theres no monitor on the right side, you can check if you dont know the peripheral name by doing peripheral.getType(sideName)

If the side display were missing, there'd be a different error - you won't get an "unexpected symbol" due to a missing peripheral.

Weve already established the fact that the "1. " is erorung it, just adding extra information incase that is also an error :I
