Abstract :
The use of a table as a tool to arrange technical data in a meaningful way is examined. A good table is identified as one that avoids the unnecessary repetition of unit symbols, test conditions, or other data compressible into stub, column, or spanner heads. Characteristics of good tables and pitfalls in constructing them are discussed
