Graphics, Figures & Tables

I've been tinkering with LaTeX to create a nice looking table. Basically, I want to create a table the same as this.

So I can easily compare data. However, getting the row colors, column widths to match the page is killing me

Is there any pre-built ones available similar? Any tips on getting it to look the same?

Thanx,
Ben

NEW: TikZ book now 40% off at Amazon.com for a short time.

And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p

Hi Ben,

what did you try? Perhaps we can help to improve that. You could have a look at the

colortbl and

tabu packages.

Nothing unusual for this table. Packages like tabu or tabularx help to accommodate columns so that the table fits the text width (and more).

A search in the forum should help you on here since this is not discussed for the first time.

Thanks for the replies. I've been just manually editing, and tinkering with tables. Very time consuming each time I want to add a column.

Nice example for creating comparison table I found is here.

Thanks again, I'll keep battling on
