check this:

--Example 1: 
  
local teams = { 
  ["Team1"] = teamName1; 
  ["Team2"] = teamName2; 
} 
  
-- then you can use this to get the team from name 
local theTeam = getTeamFromName(teams["Team1"]) 
  
-- Example 2 
local teams = { 
  team1 = teamName1; 
  team2 = teamName2; 
} 
  
-- and you can use this to get the team from name 
local theTeam = getTeamFromName(teams.team1)

Or you can use this

teama = teams[1] --- Switch out 1 with the number you want as long as its in range in the table. 

But after looking at what you want, other guys solution would work better I believe.

actually what i want is not like this

what i wanted is all the stuff on the table not 1 2 3 stuff or maybe i just missed something , but yeah ill try something / learn on my own

[Captain Cody]

Teamsb = {} 
  
Teams = { 
"Military", 
"FIB", 
"SWAT" 
} 
  
for i,v in pairs (Teams) do  
Teamsb[v] = getTeamFromName[v] 
end 

This what you looking for?

[Bean666]

aye aye thanks.

what does the

Teamsb = {} 

do?

[Captain Cody]

That sets up the table.

Table = {} -- Creates an empty table 
  
Table[1] = "Test" -- Assigns a value to the table 
  
function test () 
local tablea = Table[2] -- Turns value #2 into a local table 
local tablea[1] = "test" -- Assigns a value to the table 
local tableb = tablea[1] -- Deeper table.  
  
--- And so on
