Module:Shared

--So there are a handful of functions that I'm using in a lot of places
--So rather than continue to copy across the same handful of functions to every single new module
--I'm just going to unify them here
--Here's how you use this:
-- 1. When you're making a new module, add this near the top:
--        local Shared = require( "Module:Shared" )
-- 2. When you need to make a call to one of these functions,
--    just preface it with "Shared."
--    So for example you could call tableCount like so:
--        Shared.tableCount(data)
--This is being initially pulled together by User:Falterfire, but...
--not all these functions are mine.
--I've cited original author where I can trace it
 
local p = {}
 
-- iterator sorted by keys
-- For example, if you had a table that looked something like
-- data = {["Cat"] = 5,
--         ["Bat"] = 4,
--         ["Hat"] = 7}
-- You could do
--  for k, v in skpairs(data) do...
-- And your loop would start with k="Bat", v=4 then go to k="Cat", v=5, 
--         and finally to k="Hat", v=7
