termtables is a lightweight Python 3 package for pretty-printing tables on the command
line. Install with
```
pip install termtables
```
The code
```python
import termtables as tt
import numpy

numpy.random.seed(0)
data = numpy.random.rand(5, 2)

tt.print(data)
# tt.to_string(data) returns the string
```
produces

![table1](https://nschloe.github.io/termtables/table1.png)

You can control border style, padding, alignment, and various other attributes. For
example,
```python
import termtables as tt

header = ["a", "bb", "ccc"]
data = [
[1, 2, 3], [613.23236243236, 613.23236243236, 613.23236243236]
]

tt.print(
data,
header=header,
style=tt.styles.markdown,
padding=(0, 1),
alignment="lcr"
)
```
produces

```
| a | bb | ccc |
|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|
| 1 | 2 | 3 |
| 613.23236243236 | 613.23236243236 | 613.23236243236 |
```
which is useful for copy-pasting into websites that support Markdown (like GitHub).

See
[`test/test_termtables.py`](https://github.com/nschloe/termtables/blob/master/test/test_termtables.py)
for more examples.

If the styles in `termtables.styles`
```
thin
thin_thick
thin_double
rounded
rounded_thick
rounded_double
thick
thick_thin
double
double_thin
booktabs

ascii_thin
ascii_thin_double
ascii_double
ascii_double_thin
ascii_booktabs

markdown
```
aren't good enough for you, simply provide your own
style as a string of length 11 or 15 (the extra 4 including header-separating
characters). For example
```python
import termtables as tt

header = ["a", "bb", "ccc"]
data = [
[1, 2, 3], [613.23236243236, 613.23236243236, 613.23236243236]
]

tt.print(
data,
header=header,
style="x0123456789abcd"
)
```
produces

```
1xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx7xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx7xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx2
0 a 0 bb 0 ccc 0
abbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbcbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbcbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbd
0 1 0 2 0 3 0
