Basic Examples (2) 

Here is a grid table form of a full integer array:

In[1]:=

Out[2]=

Here is a grid table form of a nested list of integers that is not a full array:

In[3]:=

Out[3]=

Scope (5) 

Table headings can be specified:

In[4]:=

Out[4]=

If needed, various completions of the data and table headings are made in order to produce the final tabular form:

In[5]:=

Out[5]=

GridTableForm can be invoked over Dataset objects; if the dataset has column names, then they are used as table headings:

In[6]:=

In[7]:=

Out[7]=

GridTableForm can be invoked over Tabular objects; if the tabular object has column names, then they are used as table headings:

In[8]:=

Out[10]=

In[11]:=

Out[11]=

Excess table headings are ignored:

In[12]:=

Out[12]=

Options (4) 

RowBackground (1) 

The following table demonstrates the effect of different row background specifications:

In[13]:=

Out[14]=

TableHeadings (2) 

The following table demonstrates the effect of different table headings specifications:

In[15]:=

Out[16]=

---

If the row headings or column headings are too short, they are completed with SpanFromAbove and SpanFromLeft, respectively:

In[17]:=

Out[17]=

Grid options (1) 

GridTableForm takes all options of Grid:

In[18]:=

Out[7]=

Applications (3) 

Show a sample of machine learning data with corresponding variable names:

In[19]:=

Out[20]=

When studying data arrays, the use of the ResourceFunction RecordsSummary can be completed with GridTableForm:

In[21]:=

In[22]:=

Out[22]=

In[23]:=

Out[23]=

Show all rows and columns of a dataset:

In[24]:=

Out[22]=

Properties and Relations (2) 

GridTableForm is related to both TableForm and Grid. The relation with TableForm can be seen in this example:

In[25]:=

In[26]:=

Out[26]=

In[27]:=

Out[27]=

In order to produce a similar result using Grid, several data "augmentations" and option specifications have to be made:

In[28]:=

Out[28]=

Possible Issues (3) 

If the specified table headings are styled, the specification given to the option "TableHeadingsStyle" has no effect:

In[29]:=

Out[29]=

The background is extended for the extended row names:

In[30]:=

Out[30]=

If the specified table headings value is a list with one element, that element is treated as a row names specification. Compare the following examples:

In[31]:=

Out[22]=

In[32]:=

Out[32]=

Neat Examples (1) 

This example is similar to the "neat example" in the function page of TableForm:

In[33]:=

Out[33]=
