# Utility
#
#	Class containing miscellaneous constants and utility functions used in the accompanying code.
#
#	Note: Most, if not all, of the methods within this function will be class methods as opposed to instance methods,
#		  as this class is meant to serve as more of a collector of the methods as opposed to an instantiatable object.
