Abstract: We prove results on moments of L-functions in the function field setting, where the moment averages are taken over primitive characters of modulus R, where R is a polynomial in mathbbFq[T]. We consider the behaviour as extrmdegRightarrowinfty and the cardinality of the finite field is fixed. Specifically, we obtain an exact formula for the second moment provided that R is square-full, and an asymptotic formula for the fourth moment for any R. The fourth moment result is a function field analogue of Heath-Brown's result in the number field setting, which was subsequently improved by Soundararajan. Both the second and fourth moment results extend work done by Tamam in the function field setting who focused on the case where R is prime.
