The tables have termed.
termtables is a lightweight Python 3 package for pretty-printing tables on the command line. Install with
pip install termtables
The code
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 stringproduces
You can control border style, padding, alignment, and various other attributes. For example,
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).

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
import termtables as tt
header = ["a", "bb", "ccc"]
data = [
[1, 2, 3], [613.23236243236, 613.23236243236, 613.23236243236]
]
tt.print(
data,
