;inspect : [[Boolean]] - If true returns the information for the inspected unit instead of  the player. New with 2.3.
;isPet : [[Boolean]] - If true then the current pet's talents are examined instead of a player. New with 3.0.2.

==Example==
The following code displays the tabIndex number for each tab followed by the name of the tab.
 for i = 1, GetNumTalentTabs() do
        local _, name = GetTalentTabInfo(i)
        DEFAULT_CHAT_FRAME:AddMessage( i .. ' ' .. name .. ' ' )
 end
 
Using this with an 85 Unholy Death Knight...
 for i = 1, GetNumTalentTabs() do
        local id, name, description, iconTexture, pointsSpent, background, previewPointsSpent, isUnlocked = GetTalentTabInfo( 1, Partycheck, false, i )
        local id, name, description, iconTexture, pointsSpent, background, previewPointsSpent, isUnlocked = GetTalentTabInfo( 2, Partycheck, false, i )
 end

==Notes==
*Passing a true value for ''isPet'' should only work if the player is a hunter and has a pet active.
*In order for this function to return any useful information one of the following must occur:
**You're using it to get information regarding your player's current spec. In which case, you will not be passing the second argument. The client already knows everything it needs to know about you, so you don't need to inspect yourself.
**You're currently inspecting the unit and pass ''true'' as the second argument. In other words, the inspect frame is open and you have a target.
**You're calling {{api|NotifyInspect}}([[UnitId|unit]]), are waiting for [[Events/I#INSPECT_READY|INSPECT_READY]] to fire, and are passing ''true'' as the second argument. After the event fires, the client will have the information you desire.
