This module is a helper module to be used by other modules; it may not designed to be invoked directly. See RuneScape:Lua/Helper modules for a full list and more information. For a full list of modules using this helper click here

Function	Type	Use
_round(num, dp)	float, int	Rounds num to a precision given by dp, if dp is not specified, it defaults to zero. Rounds half up.
_short(str)	String	Convert numbers ending in k, m or b to the actual correct number. Example: 3.5k -> 3500
