Merge Functions

There are 4 types of merges.

1. merge

This function facilitates the user to merge two array values using a function, such as SUM, CONCAT, etc...

c = a.merge(SomeOtherArray, SomeFunction)

For example:
a = [1,2,3];
b = [4,5,6];
c = a.merge(b,SUM)
c = [5,7,9]

2. mergerows

c = a.mergerows(SomeOtherArray)

For example:
a = [1,2,3;20,25,30];
b = [10,11,12;6,7,8];
c = a.mergerows(b)
c =  [1 2  3  10 11 12
     20 25 30  6  7 8]

3. mergecolumns

c = a.mergecolumns(SomeOtherArray)

For example:
a = [1,2,3;20,25,30];
b = [10,11,12;6,7,8];
c = a.mergecolumns(b)
c = 1	 2   3
   20	25  30
   10	11  12
    6	 7   8
