Hi,
I use the attached Lua function to merge array, map and mixed tables alike (but differently! :-) The trick is to check if each key is numeric or not, append if it is and overwrite if it isn't.
This function just ignores non-table arguments because that is what I usually want. You may want to throw an error instead. Also it uses table.pack. You might need to use `tab = {...}` and ipairs, or implement pack: I might add table.himerged (hash and index) but slightly different (and some 30% faster) to util-tab but i think merging mixed hash/indexed
you really want something like this then: local tab = table.pack(...) local rv = {} tables is rare.
