Returns the age or maximum age of blocks and age for entities (there in no maximum age for entities).
For blocks, 'Age' represents the different growth stages that a crop-like block can go through. A value of 0 indicates that the crop was freshly planted, whilst a value equal to 'maximum age' indicates that the crop is ripe and ready to be harvested.
For entities, 'Age' represents the time left for them to become adults and it's in minus increasing to be 0 which means they're adults, e.g. A baby cow needs 20 minutes to become an adult which equals to 24,000 ticks so their age will be -24000 once spawned.

| Since: | 2.1, 2.12 (indices, positions of list) |
| Return Type: | Object |
Get the first, last or all positions of a character (or text) in another text using 'positions of %text% in %text%'. Nothing is returned when the value does not occur in the text. Positions range from 1 to the length of the text (inclusive).
Using 'indices/positions of %objects% in %objects%', you can get the indices or positions of a list where the value at that index is the provided value. Indices are only supported for keyed expressions (e.g. variable lists) and will return the string indices of the given value. Positions can be used with any list and will return the numerical position of the value in the list, counting up from 1. Additionally, nothing is returned if the value is not found in the list.
Whether string comparison is case-sensitive or not can be configured in Skript's config file.

Parses text as a given type, or as a given pattern.
This expression can be used in two different ways: One which parses the entire text as a single instance of a type, e.g. as a number, and one that parses the text according to a pattern.
If the given text could not be parsed, this expression will return nothing and the parse error will be set if some information is available.
Some notes about parsing with a pattern:
- The pattern must be a Skript pattern, e.g. percent signs are used to define where to parse which types, e.g. put a %number% or %items% in the pattern if you expect a number or some items there.
- You have to save the expression's value in a list variable, e.g.
- The list variable will contain the parsed values from all %types% in the pattern in order. If a type was plural, e.g. %items%, the variable's value at the respective index will be a list variable, e.g. the values will be stored in {parsed::1::*}, not {parsed::1}.

Rotates a quaternion or vector around an axis a set amount of degrees, or around all 3 axes at once.
Vectors can only be rotated around the global X/Y/Z axes, or an arbitrary vector axis.
Quaternions are more flexible, allowing rotation around the global or local X/Y/Z axes, arbitrary vectors, or all 3 local axes at once.
Global axes are the ones in the Minecraft world. Local axes are relative to how the quaternion is already oriented.
Note that rotating a quaternion around a vector results in a rotation around the local vector, so results may not be what you expect. For example, rotating around vector(1, 0, 0) is the same as rotating around the local X axis.
The same applies to rotations by all three axes at once. In addition, rotating around all three axes of a quaternion/display at once will rotate in ZYX order, meaning the Z rotation will be applied first and the X rotation last.
