## About
`tableprint` lets you easily print formatted tables of data.
Unlike other modules, you can print single rows of data at a time (useful for printing ongoing computation results).

## Installation
```bash
pip install tableprint
```

## Usage
The `tableprint.table` function takes in a matrix of data, a list of headers, a width (defaults to 11) and a style (defaults to 'round'). To print a dataset consisting of 10 rows of 3 different columns with the default width and style:
```python
import tableprint
import numpy as np

data = np.random.randn(10, 3)
headers = ['Column A', 'Column B', 'Column C']

tableprint.table(data, headers)
```
The `header` and `row` functions allow you to print just the header or just a row of data, respectively, which is useful for continuously updating a table during a long-running computation. Also, the `banner` function is useful for just printing out a nicely formatted message to the user.
