View source for API CreateFromMixins

{{framexmlfunc|Mixin.lua}}
Copies (or ''mixes in'') children from one or more tables into another.
 object = Mixin(object, ...)
 object = CreateFromMixins(...)

==Arguments==
; object : {{api|t=t|table}} - The table that children are pasted into
; ... : {{api|t=t|table}} - One or more pattern tables that are copied from

==Returns==
; object : {{api|t=t|table}} - The table that children were pasted into

==Details==
* CreateFromMixins creates a new table, while Mixin pastes children to an existing one
* When there are multiple pattern tables, children of later ones will overwrite copies of earlier ones (ie, order matters)
