Tables Help

[FlyingSpoon]

local texts = {
 {"Text 1"},
 {"Text 2"},
 {"Text 3"},
 {"Text 4"},
 {"Text 5"},

}

dxDrawText("", screenW * 0.3555, screenH * 0.7014, screenW * 0.6414, screenH * 0.8403, tocolor(255, 255, 255, 255), 1.00, "default", "left", "top", false, false, false, false, false)

How would I set a timer for 8 seconds, to go through all the texts in the 'texts table' ?

[IIYAMA]

local texts = {
 "Text 1",
 "Text 2",
 "Text 3",
 "Text 4",
 "Text 5"
}


local textIndex = 1

setTimer(function ()
  textIndex = textIndex+1
end, 8000, #texts)

dxDrawText(texts[textIndex], screenW * 0.3555, screenH * 0.7014, screenW * 0.6414, screenH * 0.8403, tocolor(255, 255, 255, 255), 1.00, "default", "left", "top", false, false, false, false, false)
