A tiny library that parses raw a credit card track string. Only works for Track 1 and 2

# trackParser
trackParser is a tiny credit card or magstripe card parser that reads in the raw string from the card and converts it to usable data. This can be used to charge a credit card as well as just read what is inside random magnetic stripe cards. For more information how magnetic cards work as well as the 3 different types of tracks available for the cards, visit [This Wikipedia Article On The Magnetic Stripe Card](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_stripe_card)
