 * This method should be called when we want to call / transact some solidity method from javascript
 * it returns an object which has same methods available as solidity contract description
 * usage example: 
 *
 * var abi = [{
 *      name: 'myMethod',
 *      inputs: [{ name: 'a', type: 'string' }],
 *      outputs: [{name: 'd', type: 'string' }]
 * }];  // contract abi
 *
 * var myContract = web3.eth.contract('0x0123123121', abi); // creation of contract object
 *
 * myContract.myMethod('this is test string param for call').call(); // myMethod call
 * myContract.myMethod('this is test string param for transact').transact() // myMethod transact
 *
 * @param address - address of the contract, which should be called
 * @param desc - abi json description of the contract, which is being created
 * @returns contract object
