1.) Coroutines
2.) Tables
3.) ModuleScripts (idk what these are)
4.) Strings (and string functions)

There are some things I want to learn on this list, so I want to know how often they are used first. Oh and also, here is a little script:

A = "I don't use this."
B = "I don't use this often."
C = "I use it sometimes."
D = "I use it often."
E = "You are going to use these so much it is going to kill you."

1.) Coroutines - D
2.) Tables - E
3.) ModuleScripts (idk what these are) - A
4.) Strings (and string functions) - E

That's how much I personally use those, and yes, I use coroutines a lot so I don't have to use separate scripts.

1) Hardly ever. But I've used it before.
2) Recently I've been using them in every script.
3) Quite a bit to reduce the recreation of redundant functions.
4) Almost Always.
