Help with table indexes and duplicate values

#1

table.find finds the first occurrence of the value, I want to find the index of the exact value I am using.

local t = {1, 1, 4, 4, 1, 3}
for i, v in pairs(t) do
print(table.find(t, v)
end

Expected output

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6

Reality

1, 1, 3, 3, 1, 6

Sorry if I said or got something wrong.

#2

Try this instead.

print(table.find(t, v, i) --i is the starting Index to look from

local t = {1, 1, 4, 4, 1, 3}
for i, v in ipairs(t) do
	print(table.find(t, v, i)) --1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6
end

Just ‘i’ not ‘i + 1’.
