New page

{{Function|
name = FindFirstChild
|arguments = [[String]] '''Name'''[, [[Bool]] '''recursive''']

|description = Returns the first child found with a name of '''Name'''. Returns ''nil'' if no such child exists.

==Example==
<pre>

while true do --Starts up a While loop
found = game.Workspace:FindFirstChild("Brick") --This looks in the Workspace for anything named "Brick", and sets the variable "found" to whatever object it finds.

if found ~= nil then -- This makes sure that it actually found something. If the variable is nothing, then it ends.

found.Name = "blah" --Sets the object's name to "blah"

end --End the If loop

end --End the While loop

</pre>

== Recursive ==

Recursive sets whether the function should look inside of objects in the calling object, as well as the calling object.

For example, if there is a part in workspace called "Part" and you use:

<pre>
game:FindFirstChild("Part", true)
</pre>

It will find the part.
