    zip_with_helper ()

    This is a generalized version of Haskells zipWith, but instead
    of running a function and appending that result to the list of results
    returned, we call a helper function instead.

    So this function does most of the work for map(), filter(), and zip().

    result_helper may do a variety of things with the function to
    be called and the arguments.  The results, if any, are appended
    to the resutls_l table.

    filter(func, [one or more tables])

    Selects the items from the argument list(s), calls
    func() on that, and if the result is true, the arguments
    are appended to the results list.

    Note that if func() takes only one argument and one
    list of arguments is given, the result will be a table
    that contains the values from the argument list directly.

    If there are two or more argument lists, then the 
    result table will contain a list of lists of arguments that matched
    the condition implemented by func().

    Examples:
        function is_equal (x, y) return x == y end
        function is_even (x) return x % 2 == 0 end
        function is_less (x, y) return x < y end


        filter(is_even, {1,2,3,4}) -> {2,4}

        filter(is_less, {10, 20, 30, 40}, {10, 22, 33, 40})        --> {{20,22}, {30, 33}}

    map(function, [one or more tables])

    Repeatedly apply the function to the arguments composed from the
    elements of the lists provided.

    Examples:

        function add(x,y) return x + y end

        map(double, {1,2,3})                -> {2,4,6}
        map(add, {1,2,3}, {10, 20, 30})     -> {11, 22, 33}

    This also implements the functionality of 
        zipWith, zipWith3, zipWith4, etc. 
    in Haskell.

    func() should be a function that takes as many
    arguments as tables provided.  map() returns a list of just the
    first return values from each call to func().
