reST features two synthaxes for tables. Grid tables are complete but a lot of work, while simple tables are easy to create but limited (now raw spans, etc.).
Grid table:
+------------+------------+------------+ | Header 1 | Header 2 | Header 3 | +============+============+============+ | body row 1 | column 2 | column 3 | +------------+------------+------------+ | body row 2 | Cells may span columns. | +------------+------------+------------+ | body row 3 | Cells may | - Cells | +------------+ span rowns | - contain | | body row 4 | | - blocks. | +------------+------------+------------+
Simple table:
===== ===== ====== Inputs Output
A B A or B ===== ===== ====== False False False True False True False True True True True True ===== ===== ======
The table directive can be used to create a titled table:
========== =========== ======= Research Programming Design ========== =========== ======= Scientists Developers Artists Ranks Grades Titles ========== =========== =======
To refer to a table a simple hyperlink can be declared, i.e. creating a hyper-table_.
.. _hyper-table:
+--------------+------+ |Attribute |value | +==============+======+ |implementation|simple| +--------------+------+ |usability |high | +--------------+------+ |acceptance |yes | +--------------+------+
