This module makes use of a scribunto lua library to create, and modify tables dynamically.

To create a simple table, follow these steps:

Create a lua table containing rows and columns:

-- Array consisting of rows and columns
local tRowData = {
-- Row - Columns
   {"Girls","Boys"},
   {"Xena","Hercules"}, 
   {"Athena","Hades"}, 
}

Create a new table builder and pass through the tRowData:
```
local newTable = tableBuilder.new(tRowData)
```

Display the table:

local tableOutput = newTable:getTable()
