tContains(table, value)

Returns true (1) if value is in table, false (nil) otherwise. Note: this is not a standard Lua function, but was added by Blizzard to simplify table searches.

<big>'''Implementation'''</big>
function tContains(table, item)
local index = 1;
while table[index] do
if ( item == table[index] ) then
return 1;
end
index = index + 1;
end
return nil;

== Example ==

banana = { "yellow", "curved", "yummy" };
lotus = { "pink", "pretty" };

eatme = tContains( lotus, "yummy" );

<big>'''Result'''</big>
eatme = false
