Protected "Module:Ancient Egypt era": High-risk Lua module; 1,000+ transclusions ([Edit=Require autoconfirmed or confirmed access] (indefinite))

-- calendar to the equivalent year of the ancient Egyptian era organized by dynasties and kings.

-- not be converted, or if the converted input is too big or too small.

return "''N/A''"
end
-- Find the length of the data.
-- We need the length of the data so that we can loop through it backwards.
-- Normally we can get the length of tables with the # operator, but this
-- doesn't work with mw.loadData, as mw.loadData uses a metatable, and the
-- # operator doesn't work for tables that use metatables.
