Example
For a Warrior, checks the prerequisites for the talent "Flurry": local tier, column, learnable = GetTalentPrereqs(2,16)

Result

tier = 4 column = 3 learnable = 1 if you have 5/5 in Enrage, nil otherwise

Details
If you select a talent with no prerequisites, the whole function returns nil

The original code by Blizzard shows that possibly several prerequisites could exists, in which case other triplets of row, column, learnable values would be returned. Code to handle this would look like this :

local handle_prereqs = function (...) for i = 1, select("#", ...), 3 do    local row, column, learnable = select(i, ...) end end handle_prereqs(GetTalentPrereqs(tab, index))
