I know that I've seen some example somewhere before but for the life of me I cannot find it when googling around.
I have some rows of data:
data = [[1,2,3],
[4,5,6],
[7,8,9],
]
And I want to output this data in a table, eg
+---+---+---+
| 1 | 2 | 3 |
+---+---+---+
| 4 | 5 | 6 |
+---+---+---+
| 7 | 8 | 9 |
+---+---+---+
Obviously I could use a library like prettytable or download pandas or something but I'm very disinterested in doing that.
I just want to output my rows as tables in my Jupyter notebook cell. How do I do this?
There is a nice trick: wrap the data with pandas DataFrame.
import pandas as pd
data = [[1, 2], [3, 4]]
pd.DataFrame(data, columns=["Foo", "Bar"])
It displays data like:
| Foo | Bar |
0 | 1 | 2 |
1 | 3 | 4 |
I just discovered that tabulate has a HTML option and is rather simple to use.
Quite similar to Wayne Werner's answer:
from IPython.display import HTML, display
import tabulate
table = [["Sun",696000,1989100000],
["Earth",6371,5973.6],
["Moon",1737,73.5],
["Mars",3390,641.85]]
display(HTML(tabulate.tabulate(table, tablefmt='html')))
Still looking for something simple to use to create more complex table layouts like with latex syntax and formatting to merge cells and do variable substitution in a notebook:
Allow references to Python variables in Markdown cells #2958
I finally re-found the jupyter/IPython documentation that I was looking for.
I needed this:
from IPython.display import HTML, display
data = [[1,2,3],
[4,5,6],
[7,8,9],
]
display(HTML(
'<table><tr>{}</tr></table>'.format(
'</tr><tr>'.join(
'<td>{}</td>'.format('</td><td>'.join(str(_) for _ in row)) for row in data)
)
))
(I may have slightly mucked up the comprehensions, but display(HTML('some html here'))
is what we needed)
tabletext fit this well
import tabletext
data = [[1,2,30],
[4,23125,6],
[7,8,999],
]
print tabletext.to_text(data)
result:
┌───┬───────┬─────┐
│ 1 │ 2 │ 30 │
├───┼───────┼─────┤
│ 4 │ 23125 │ 6 │
├───┼───────┼─────┤
│ 7 │ 8 │ 999 │
└───┴───────┴─────┘
If you don't mind using a bit of html, something like this should work.
from IPython.display import HTML, display
def display_table(data):
html = "<table>"
for row in data:
html += "<tr>"
for field in row:
html += "<td><h4>%s</h4></td>"%(field)
html += "</tr>"
html += "</table>"
display(HTML(html))
And then use it like this
data = [[1,2,3],[4,5,6],[7,8,9]]
display_table(data)
You could try to use the following function
def tableIt(data):
for lin in data:
print("+---"*len(lin)+"+")
for inlin in lin:
print("|",str(inlin),"", end="")
print("|")
print("+---"*len(lin)+"+")
data = [[1,2,3,2,3],[1,2,3,2,3],[1,2,3,2,3],[1,2,3,2,3]]
tableIt(data)
Ok, so this was a bit harder than I though:
def print_matrix(list_of_list):
number_width = len(str(max([max(i) for i in list_of_list])))
cols = max(map(len, list_of_list))
output = '+'+('-'*(number_width+2)+'+')*cols + '\n'
for row in list_of_list:
for column in row:
output += '|' + ' {:^{width}d} '.format(column, width = number_width)
output+='|\n+'+('-'*(number_width+2)+'+')*cols + '\n'
return output
This should work for variable number of rows, columns and number of digits (for numbers)
data = [[1,2,30],
[4,23125,6],
[7,8,999],
]
print print_matrix(data)

I used to have the same problem. I could not find anything that would help me so I ended up making the class PrintTable
--code below. There is also an output. The usage is simple:
ptobj = PrintTable(yourdata, column_captions, column_widths, text_aligns)
ptobj.print()
or in one line:
PrintTable(yourdata, column_captions, column_widths, text_aligns).print()
Output:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name | Column 1 | Column 2 | Column 3 | Column 4 | Column 5
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Very long name 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0
Very long name 1 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5
Very long name 2 | 2 | 4 | 6 | 8 | 10
Very long name 3 | 3 | 6 | 9 | 12 | 15
Very long name 4 | 4 | 8 | 12 | 16 | 20
Very long name 5 | 5 | 10 | 15 | 20 | 25
Very long name 6 | 6 | 12 | 18 | 24 | 30

A general purpose set of functions to render any python data structure (dicts and lists nested together) as HTML.
from IPython.display import HTML, display

I recently used prettytable
for rendering a nice ASCII table. It's similar to the postgres CLI output.
import pandas as pd
from prettytable import PrettyTable
data = [[1,2,3],[4,5,6],[7,8,9]]
df = pd.DataFrame(data, columns=['one', 'two', 'three'])
def generate_ascii_table(df):
x = PrettyTable()
x.field_names = df.columns.tolist()
for row in df.values:
x.add_row(row)
print(x)
return x
generate_ascii_table(df)
Output:
+-----+-----+-------+
| one | two | three |
+-----+-----+-------+
| 1 | 2 | 3 |
| 4 | 5 | 6 |
| 7 | 8 | 9 |

I want to output a table where each column has the smallest possible width, where columns are padded with white space (but this can be changed) and rows are separated by newlines (but this can be changed) and where each item is formatted using str
(but...).
def ftable(tbl, pad=' ', sep='\n', normalize=str):
# normalize the content to the most useful data type
strtbl = [[normalize(it) for it in row] for row in tbl]
# next, for each column we compute the maximum width needed
w = [0 for _ in tbl[0]]
for row in strtbl:
for ncol, it in enumerate(row):
w[ncol] = max(w[ncol], len(it))
# a string is built iterating on the rows and the items of `strtbl`:
# items are prepended white space to an uniform column width
# formatted items are `join`ed using `pad` (by default " ")
# eventually we join the rows using newlines and return
return sep.join(pad.join(' '*(wid-len(it))+it for wid, it in zip(w, row))
for row in strtbl)
The function signature, ftable(tbl, pad=' ', sep='\\n', normalize=str)
, with its default arguments is intended to provide for maximum flexibility.
You can customize
pad='&', sep='\\\\\\\\\\n'
to have the bulk of a LaTeX table)str
but if you know that all your data is floating point lambda item: "%.4f"%item
could be a reasonable choice, etc.Superficial testing:
I need some test data, possibly involving columns of different width so that the algorithm needs to be a little more sophisticated (but just a little bit;)

You can add your own formatters. Recursion is optional but really nice.
Try this in JupyterLite :
from html import escape
fmtr = get_ipython().display_formatter.formatters['text/html']
def getfmtr(obj, func=None):
if fmtr.for_type(type(obj)):
return fmtr.for_type(type(obj))(obj)
else:
return escape(obj.__str__()).replace("\n", "<br>")
def strfmtr(obj):
return escape(obj.__str__()).replace("\n", "<br>")
fmtr.for_type(str, strfmtr)
def listfmtr(self):
_repr_ = []
_repr_.append("<table>")
for item in self:
_repr_.append("<tr>")
_repr_.append("<td>")
_repr_.append(getfmtr(item))
_repr_.append("<td>")
_repr_.append("</tr>")
_repr_.append("</table>")
return str().join(_repr_)
fmtr.for_type(list, listfmtr)
def dictfmtr(self):
_repr_ = []
_repr_.append("<table>")
for key in self:
_repr_.append("<th>")
_repr_.append(getfmtr(key))
_repr_.append("<th>")
_repr_.append("<tr>")
for key, value in self.items():
_repr_.append("<td>")
_repr_.append(getfmtr(value))
_repr_.append("<td>")
_repr_.append("</tr>")
_repr_.append("</table>")
return str().join(_repr_)
fmtr.for_type(dict, dictfmtr)
