reST features several 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.). Additionally, CSV-tables are a convenient alternative where one can define column widths. Tables can be decorated with a title and even hyperlinked.
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 span rowns |
|
body row 4 |
Simple table:
Inputs | Output | |
---|---|---|
A | B | A or B |
False | False | False |
True | False | True |
False | True | True |
True | True | True |
Titled table:
The table directive can be used to create a titled table:
Research | Programming | Design |
---|---|---|
Scientists | Developers | Artists |
Ranks | Grades | Titles |
CSV table:
CSV tables enable to specify explicitly the width of each column:
Facets | Professions | Achievements |
---|---|---|
Research | Scientist | Ranks |
Programming | Developer | Grades |
Design | Artist | Titles |
Hyper table:
To refer to a table a simple hyperlink can be declared, i.e. creating a hyper-table.
