# Container Slots

## How to determine a slots index?

Understanding what is classified as a container in the bot is crucial. Most popups are considered containers, including chests, ender chests, furnaces, etc.

**Slot indexes start from 0 (not from 1)**. This means you can determine any slot's index by counting from the top left, starting at 0. For example:

* The 1st slot, meaning at top left, is index 0.
* The 2nd slot, is index 1 (see illustrations below).

To further illustrate this, please refer to the images below:
