Tables

Use tables when it is appropriate to represent sets of related data.

Do not use tables for component parameters. Instead, use component parameters.

Formatting tables

• Use three hyphens per column. This is to make editing multiple files easier via pattern matching.
• Use a pipe | before and after each set of ---
• Do not include spaces before or after pipe characters. Again, this is to make editing multiple files easier via pattern matching.
• Like lists having at least two points or steps, a table should have at least two rows.

For example, a three-column table would be formatted like so:

|Property|Setting|Description|
|---|---|---|
|Name|String|A human-readable name for the environment.|
|Age|Integer|The age of the environment.|
|And|so|on|
|And|so|forth|
