0 in this Time table returns nil?

Hello, This might be an easy fix, So i’m trying to create a time checker to see what time it is for the Player, It works, but when it hits 0, it returns nil?

I’m slightly confused as i have a >= inside the if statement to check

Script 
local TimePrompts = {
	
	[0] = "Good Morning ";
	[6] = "Good Day ";
	[12] = "Good Evening ";
	[15] = "Good Afternoon "
}

local TTime = 0
local Hour = os.date("*t")["hour"] -- Player's Time in hours

function Time(x: number)
	local str
	local ff = 0
	for n,s in pairs(TimePrompts) do -- for number, string
		if x >= n and x > ff then
			str = s..tostring(game.Players.LocalPlayer) -- format
		end
	end
	return str -- returns format
end

while wait() do -- this is a test loop
	print(Time(TTime), TTime) --
	if TTime == 24 then
		TTime = 0
	else
		TTime += 1
		
	end
end
Output 
  19:28:07.238  nil 0  -  Client - Time:29

  19:28:08.162  Good Afternoon xGOA7x 24  -  Client - Time:29
  19:28:08.202  nil 0  -  Client - Time

How would I fix this?

#2 
if x >= n and x > ff then

if x is equal to 0 and ff is equal to 0 then it would return false

#4

0 means 12 AM, and im trying to check for all time

#6 
while wait() do -- this is a test loop
	
	if TTime == 24 then
		TTime = 0
	else
		TTime += 1
	end
	print(Time(TTime), TTime) --
end

Printing before you’re checking. Move the print to the bottom.

#7

Its checking if its greater than or equal to 0 in the Tables Value,

#8

nope, this makes it 1 hour ahead when testing, doesnt fix anything

#9

so if you substitute in these values with x being 0 it would be:

if 0 >= 0 and 0 > 0 then

the first if statement would return true but the second one would return false
