I am basic to scripting, I need help on making a RPG, I don't understand most of this, can someone be nice enough to help me?

local larm = script.Parent:FindFirstChild("Left Arm")
local rarm = script.Parent:FindFirstChild("Right Arm")

function findNearestTorso(pos)
local list = game.Workspace:children()
local torso = nil
local dist = 5
local temp = nil
local human = nil
local temp2 = nil
for x = 1, #list do
temp2 = list[x]
if (temp2.className == "Model") and (temp2 ~= script.Parent) then
temp = temp2:findFirstChild("Torso")
human = temp2:findFirstChild("Humanoid")
if (temp ~= nil) and (human ~= nil) and (human.Health > 0) then
if (temp.Position - pos).magnitude < dist then
torso = temp
dist = (temp.Position - pos).magnitude
end
end
end
end
return torso
end

while true do
wait(0.1)
local target = findNearestTorso(script.Parent.Torso.Position)
if target ~= nil then
script.Parent.Humanoid:MoveTo(target.Position, target)
end
end


I don't not get this, it is a free model, yes. But I am learning from it

Basically it goes through a long list to find the closest torso, then returns it so the other part of the script can walk towards... I personally think there is a simpler way to do this but it's the "free model everyone has" one.
