[HELP] How to use table.find function?

[Turbesz]

I tried this method, but does not work:

local tabla = {"Valami", "ASdasd", "Teszt", "Proba"}

function teszt()
local talalat = table.find(tabla,"Va")
outputChatBox(talalat)
end

addCommandHandler("test",teszt)

function table.find(tabl,word) 
	if type(tabl) ~= "table" or word == nil then 
	return false 
	else 
	local ret = false 
	for k,v in pairs(tabl) do 
		if v == word then 
		return k 
		end 
	end 
	end 
	end

It works, but "Va" is not in the list.

Try this

function table.find(tabl,word) 
	if type(tabl) ~= "table" or word == nil then 
	return false 
	else 
	local ret = false 
	for k,v in pairs(tabl) do 
		if string.find(v, word) then 
		    return k 
		end 
	end 
	end 
	end
