What is data?[]
A brief definition would be:
The quantities, characters, or symbols on which operations are performed by a computer.
When I talk about data in this tutorial, I mean the stuff that you mess around with to create new stuff. For example, in the following code 0 is the data.
print(0)

When is data used in RBX.lua?[]

Every operation you do within RBX.lua will most likely revolve around data, so remember the basic types!
