But it is best to tab everything to you can see if you have too many ends or if you have an if/function/for statement that has no end.

function lol() --first I write this end -- then I write the end and just after that I move to the next code-block, in this case: UP
Helps to promote well-kept/visible code
it helped me :).
if you know other programming languages like c(++), java(script), php, etc.: it's like the bracket stuff { }. Lua doesn't have these brackets and therefore it needs "end".
if/function/for/while/repeat is the opening bracket, end is the closing bracket.
But i only use (If,Function)
i never used (for,while,repeat)
How can you not use For and While loops ( repeat isn't that commonly used, I get that. )? They are another very neccisary piece of code one should use.
DC has written
each if, each function and each loop-type (for/while/repeat) needs exactly one end to be ended.

and what about programing language from Pascal?

It is slightly different.
In Pascal, each Begin requires End

function NewDay() : Integer; var i : Integer; TempApples : InitArray; begin TempApples := Apples; for i := 1 to ApplesCount do begin if IsInArray(i) and TempApples[i] then begin Apples[i + 1] := true; Apples[i - 1] := true; end; end; end;
