This example draws the contents of a table and its data type:

local Table = {    
    ["matrix"] = {position = {getElementPosition(localPlayer)},rotation = {getElementRotation( localPlayer )}},
    ["localplayer"] = getPlayerName(localPlayer),
}

addEventHandler("onClientRender",root,
    function( )
        dxDrawText(inspect(Table),10,250)
    end
)

An example of what it should draw:

{
  localplayer = "Loki",
  matrix= {
    position = { 2496.3908691406, -1669.853515625, 13.335947036743 },
    rotation = { -0, 0, 155.4147644043 }
  }
}
