the index that the value should be inserted to keep the list ordered.

local x = 5
local index = table.binary_search(t, x)
if index < 0 then

-- add table-related functions that exist in base factorio/util to the 'table' table

--- Similar to serpent.block, returns a string with a pretty representation of a table.
-- Notice: This method is not appropriate for saving/restoring tables. It is meant to be used by the programmer mainly while debugging a program.
-- @param table the table to serialize
-- @param options options are depth, newline, indent, process
-- depth sets the maximum depth that will be printed out. When the max depth is reached, inspect will stop parsing tables and just return {...}
-- process is a function which allow altering the passed object before transforming it into a string.
-- A typical way to use it would be to remove certain values so that they don't appear at all.
-- return the prettied table

--- Takes a table and returns the number of entries in the table. (Slower than #table, faster than iterating via pairs)

-- Shallow copies meaning it copies the reference to the object instead of the object itself.

--- Merges multiple tables. Tables later in the list will overwrite entries from tables earlier in the list.
-- Ex. merge({{1, 2, 3}, {[2] = 0}, {[3] = 0}}) will return {1, 0, 0}
-- @param tables takes a table of tables to merge
-- @return a merged table
