Variable for :FindFirstChild("")?

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

Is there anyway to make a variable for find first child instead of just typing the whole this every time?

for example

local FFC = FindFirstChild

workspace:FFC(“Part”)

#2

Yes, however it’s gonna be ugly as you have to pass workspace to the function because of syntactic sugar.

local ffc = 'FindFirstChild'
workspace[ffc](workspace, 'Part')

You could also probably make your own function but it’s really going to be messy so I recommend just using instance:FindFirstChild

local function findFirstChild(instance, ...)
    return instance:FindFirstChild(...)
end
findFirstChild(workspace, 'Part')
