Are you also a beginner to programming? Or can you already program in another language? If so which? It will help us frame our reply at the right level.

'table' is not a native concept in Python so I assume you are talking from the point of view of your problem domain. Can you tell us more about the nature of these tables? How are they constructed?
Where do they live?
- plain text?
- an application file(eg Excel)?
- a database(which?)?
- a web page?
- other?

Can you give some sample input?
What should the output look like?
