Oh where do I even begin.

A script is basically logical instructions a computer can read which allows you to make objects in roblox do things.
Roblox uses the Lua programming language.

You can look at free models and reverse engineer the scripts(hard way but I did it) or you could join a scripting community like scripting helpers to learn the basics. Then once you have a basic understanding of scripting look stuff up on the wiki or if the wiki does not explain something post it on the forum.

A script in this case is a piece of code the computer executes.

How do you script? Well you have to learn the syntax of a script, simply saying "please add 2 plus 2 thank you computer" won't work (I used to do that when I was starting way back when, I then searched up the wiki.) Here's some basic script, that you should be able to understand:

print("Hello world.") -- Outputs "Hello World"
wait(1) -- Waits one second.
print("Goodbye world.") -- Outputs "Goodbye World"

A slightly more complex script:

while wait(1) do -- Every one second repeat
print("lol") -- Output "lol"
end

So yeah, you can also look at free models, and reverse engineer the scripts as someone previously said.
