function cleartext()
   term.clear()
   holder("My Miner ", 1,1
   term.setCursorPos(1,3)
end
function holder(string, columnVar,rowVar)
   term.setCursorPos(columnVar, rowVar)
   write (string)
end
end
end
end
cleartext()
print("Welcome to this unworking program! ")
sleep(1)
cleartext()
print("Lets get started")
sleep(1)
print("Starting...")

It tells me that I'm trying to call nil or something when it's supposed to start it's cleartext() function? what did I do wrong?

I have detected that you do not close off your for loops. When calling any type of loop, make sure you close off the block you want to repeat with an end statement.
Since you did not close off your for loops, the Lua interpreter did not define your cleartext() function. Also, you forgot the closing bracket on your call to holder in the cleartext() function.
