 * require_once().
 *
 * These functions are not optimized for speed, but they should only be used
 * once in a while, so speed shouldn't be a concern. If it is and you are
 * needing to use these functions a lot, you might experience time outs. If you
 * do, then it is advised to just write the SQL code yourself.
 *
 * You can turn debugging on, by setting $debug to 1 after you include this
