I am looking for a way to put this into a table with the underlining going correctly. What I want is the following: both columns are underlined, but it is not one connected line. I would like to have a small gap in between the two. How can I obtain this?
I know I can underline columns with \cline{1} and \cline{2} but this makes them connected, which is what I do not want.
\begin{table}
\begin{tabular}{cc}
3 & 3 \\
\end{tabular}
\end{table}
Hopefully someone can help me out.
Simply use an empty column and hhline (or cline)
%...
\usepackage{hhline}
%...
\begin{tabular}{c#{\ }c#{\ }c}
3 & & 3 \\
\hhline{-~-}
\end{tabular}

I am having problems in adjusting the format for a table in LaTex. The code is the following and the image depicts how the table comes out after compiling:
\begin{table}[H]
\centering
\renewcommand{\arraystretch}{1.2}
\resizebox{\columnwidth}{!}{
\begin{tabular}{|p{2cm}|c|c|c|}
\hline
{\textbf{Labels}} & {\textbf{Precision}} & {\textbf{Recall}} & {\textbf{F1-Score}}
\\
% \hline
\cline{2-9}
% \textbf{Inactive Modes} & \textbf{Description}\\
%\hhline{~--}
{Not Misogynous} & $37.49\%\pm1.91\%$ & $46.13\%$ & $36.15\%\pm2.61\%$ & \\ \hline
{Not Misogynous} & $37.49\%\pm1.91\%$ & $46.13\%$ & $36.15\%\pm2.61\%$ & \\ \hline
\end{tabular}
}
\caption{BERTweet binary task}
\label{table:bert_binary}
\end{table}
I don't understand how to add the necessary line to "close" the boxes around the table
You have a few issues in your code.
You specify 4 columns p{}ccc while a content of tabular body has 5 columns (with the extra ending &). This is why the lines are discontinued.
Numbers X and Y in the argument of \cline{X-Y} must not exceed the available number of columns. You define 4 and trying to draw horizontal rule between 2 and 9. You probably get the error: Extra alignment tab has been changed to \cr.
You should avoid inserting empty line in tables. Most of the times LaTeX do not accept \par in table environments, which is converted from empty lines. It may work in modern packages that use more recent advances in LaTeX.
I also wonder why you enclose cells inside {...}. The code works without them. Is there any particular reason? Perhaps in the main code you load siunitx and apply S-type column. Then, you do have to tell siunitx which cells are non-numeric by wrapping cells inside braces. Otherwise, siunitx issues error!
Here's my suggestion for the table:
I defined columns which accept math expressions without extra $...$
The main values and uncertainties are split in columns to improve formatting and spacing
booktabs provides improved rules that arguably improved presentation
Default gap between the table and its caption seems too large, so I slightly reduced it (requires caption package)
I keep captions of tables at the top and captions of figures at the bottom but this is again a personal preference.
One of the rules I usually follow is to avoid repeated information in tables. The % in your case is repeated everywhere. You could remove it and add annotation that values in all three columns are percentages.
Here's the table
and the code
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{array}
\usepackage{booktabs}
\usepackage{caption}
\captionsetup[table]{position=bottom,skip=3pt}
\newcolumntype{R}{>{\(}r<{\)}}
\newcolumntype{L}{>{\(}r<{\)}}
\begin{document}
\begin{table}[tbh]
\centering
\renewcommand{\arraystretch}{1.2}
\caption{BERTweet binary task}
\label{table:bert_binary}
\begin{tabular}{p{2.5cm} R#{\;}L c R#{\;}L}
\toprule
\textbf{Labels}
& \multicolumn{2}{c}{\textbf{Precision}}
& \textbf{Recall}
& \multicolumn{2}{c}{\textbf{F1-Score}} \\
\midrule
Not Misogynous & 37.49 & \pm1.91 & 46.13 & 36.15 & \pm2.61 \\
Not Misogynous & 37.49 & \pm1.91 & 46.13 & 36.15 & \pm2.61 \\
\bottomrule
\multicolumn{6}{#{}l#{}}{\footnotesize All values in \%}
\end{tabular}
\end{table}
\end{document}
I think the previous answer to this question is very good and detailed, including many observations that is always useful to consider when doing tables in LaTeX. It also addresses you to avoid vertical lines in tables (consistently with the use of the package booktabs).
I add the following code and output just for the sake to remark the minimal edits necessary for your original code to reach a threshold look.
\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}
\renewcommand{\arraystretch}{1.2}
\begin{table}%[H]
\centering
\begin{tabular}{|p{3cm}|c|c|c|}
\hline
{\textbf{Labels}} & {\textbf{Precision}} & {\textbf{Recall}} & {\textbf{F1-Score}}\\
\hline
Not Misogynous & $37.49\%\pm1.91\%$ & $46.13\%$ & $36.15\%\pm2.61\%$\\
\hline
Not Misogynous & $37.49\%\pm1.91\%$ & $46.13\%$ & $36.15\%\pm2.61\%$\\
\hline
\end{tabular}

\label{table:bert_binary}
\end{table}
\end{document}
I want to put a basic table into a 2-columns document.
I saw that instead of:
\begin{table}
enter code here
\end{table}
we should use:
\begin{table*}
enter code here
\end{table*}
but it is not working.
If anyone has an idea, thanks in advance! Below a minimal example.
\documentclass[10pt]{article}
\usepackage{lipsum}% fake text
\usepackage{multicol}% enable writing in 2 columns
\setlength{\columnsep}{7mm}% separation between the two columns
\setlength{\columnseprule}{1pt}% width of the separation lign(comment if not wanted)
\begin{document}
\begin{multicols}{2}
\lipsum[1]
\begin{table*}[t]
\begin{tabular}{cc}
A & b\\
c & d
\end{tabular}
\end{table*}
\end{multicols}
\end{document}
It seems that the document class is important.
If I change
article -> scrartcl
I can use the
\captionof{table}{my caption}
without using the table environment.
But I don't know if it is the right way to do it.
Floats and marginpars are not allowed inside multicols environment. Also, table* would be page wide. If you comment the table* environment, you get the tabular in the second column:
\documentclass[10pt]{article}
\usepackage{lipsum}% fake text
\usepackage{multicol}% enable writing in 2 columns
\setlength{\columnsep}{7mm}% separation between the two columns
\setlength{\columnseprule}{1pt}% width of the separation lign(comment if not wanted)
\begin{document}
\begin{multicols}{2}
\lipsum[1]
%\begin{table*}[t]
\begin{tabular}{cc}
A & b\\
c & d
\end{tabular}
%\end{table*}
\end{multicols}
\end{document}
Rather, you can nest the tabular inside a center environment and, if you need, use the package caption to label and reference your tabular although it's not a float.
I got a problem with tables in LaTeX. I am using a pre-defined format from a conference, which makes a page consists of two columns. My table is too wide to be contained in one column, so it goes to the second column of the page and overlaps with text!
Why is LaTeX allowing this?
Is it possible in the current format, to make the table a block, so that it uses two columns, and the text in the other column dragged down a bit?
Any other suggestion?
This is my code:
\begin{table}
\centering
\begin{tabular}{|c|c|c|c|c|c|}
\hline
Rule & Factor & Best Value & Delta_t & Delta_{do} & Comments \\
\hline
\multirow{3}{c}{Diagonal Dominance} & Line Angle & 45 & 15 & 30 & The angle between the prominent line of the object and
the diagonal lines \\ % TODO: What object? Make sure it is clear.
& Line Distance & 0 & 0.25 & 1 & The distance, in screen coordinates, from the
prominent line of the object to the diagonal lines. \\ % TODO: Need to define screen coordinates
& Corner Distances & 0 & 0.1 & 0.7 & The distance, in screen coordinates, from the
end of the prominent line of the object to the corners of the screen. \\
\hline
\end{tabular}
\caption{The factors of each rule and their parameters.}
\label{table:factors}
\end{table}
Thank you in advance for your help.

Generally, the starred version of floating environments are used to tell LaTeX to span two columns. So, something like:
\begin{table*}
% Table contents
\end{table*}
The same can be done with figures.
In place of tabular, use tabularx, for example:
\begin{tabularx}{\textwidth}{|c|c|c|c|c|X|}
Sorry, #Rafid, I normally use memoir, which includes it, so I forgot this bit:
\usepackage{tabularx}
I am inserting a table in to a file that already has some text in it. This is at the end of a section and right before the beginning of another.
First I added the following code (sample, the real table is a real long one)
\begin{tabular}{|c|c|c|c}
a&b&c&d\\
\hline
c&d&e&f\\
\hline
\end{tabular}
Everything is fine. However I realise I need a caption to the table. So, then I changed the code to:
\begin{table}
\caption {title}
\begin{tabular}{|c|c|c|c}
a&b&c&d\\
\hline
c&d&e&f\\
\hline
\end{tabular}
\end{table}
Now the table jumps into the next section and starts 3-4 lines after the next section.
What am I doing wrong here?
try using the longtable package. or you can use \begin{table}[!h]
I have two very short and consecutive sections (for a CV), each containing a small table:
\section{Work Experience}
\begin{tabular}{r|p{11cm}}
Current & Your job at Your Company, Town \\
Jan 2009 & What your company does \\
& A description of what you do\\
\multicolumn{2}{c}{}\
\end{tabular}
\section{Education}
\begin{tabular}{r|p{11cm}}
Slightly wider first column & University, Town \\
Jan 2009 & Thesis subject \\
& A description of what you did\\
\multicolumn{2}{c}{}\
\end{tabular}
So each table has two columns: The first containing the period, aligned to the right. The second: some more info with a certain width, top (and left) aligned.
The problem is that the width of the left column in the two tables is different, and doesn't look nice since the sections (therefore tables) are consecutive and in one page. I cannot give r a width like p:
\begin{tabular}{r{11cm}|p{11cm}}
Does not work. How can I get the widths of the first columns of the two tables the same length while also having them right aligned?
EDIT Thanks for the answers, they all work for me so I upvoted all of them, and accepted the one that appealed to me the most (and most upvoted), since you don't have to specify the \hfill in each row. However if you don't want to use the array package for any reason then the other solutions are also great.
If you use the array package, you can put the \hfill in the header as follows, so you don't have to remember to put it (or a \parbox) in each row.
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{multicol}
\usepackage{array}
\begin{document}
\section{Work Experience}
\begin{tabular}{>{\hfill}p{5cm}|p{11cm}}
Current & Your job at Your Company, Town \\
Jan 2009 & What your company does \\
& A description of what you do\\
\multicolumn{2}{c}{}
\end{tabular}
\section{Education}
\begin{tabular}{>{\hfill}p{5cm}|p{11cm}}
Slightly wider first column & University, Town \\
Jan 2009 & Thesis subject \\
& A description of what you did\\
\multicolumn{2}{c}{}
\end{tabular}
\end{document}
to give:

Here's a variant of #RTBarnard's answer using the tabularx package:
\documentclass[a4paper,twoside,draft,12pt]{article}
\usepackage{tabularx}
\begin{document}
\section{Work Experience}
\begin{tabularx}{\textwidth}{>{\raggedleft}X|p{8cm}}
Current & Your job at Your Company, Town \\
Jan 2009 & What your company does \\
& A description of what you do\\
\end{tabularx}
\section{Education}
\begin{tabularx}{\textwidth}{>{\raggedleft}X|p{8cm}}
Somewhat wider than first column,
overflowing into additional lines & University, Town \\
Jan 2009 & Thesis subject \\
& A description of what you did\\
\end{tabularx}
\end{document}
Notes:
Why tabularx? Because it's often
easier to know the width you have
available for the whole table, and
to let TeX calculate the unknown
column widths.
The first parameter is the overall table width. Here, I've specified \textwidth to fill the width of typeblock, but you can change that to whatever measure you need.
I've used \raggedright rather than \hfill: if the item flows onto a second line, \hfill will only right-align the first line of the paragraph.
Was the \multicol significant? I've removed it to keep the answer as simple as possible.
Run with XeTeX under TeXLive.
Here's one solution of many possibilities:
\begin{tabular}{r|p{11cm}}
\parbox{11cm}{\hfill Current} & Your job at Your Company, Town \\
Jan 2009 & What your company does \\
& A description of what you do\\
\multicolumn{2}{c}{}\
\end{tabular}
Basically, create a \parbox with the desired width and put an \hfill at the left.
You can give both p{width} options, and start each cell in the left with an \hfill.
You can use array package to specify a fill command for each row in your first column:
\begin{tabular}{>{\hfill}p{11cm}|p{11cm}|}
For example:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{array}
\begin{document}
\begin{tabular}{>{\hfill}p{5cm}|p{11cm}|}
This is a test & test
\end{tabular}
\begin{tabular}{>{\hfill}p{5cm}|p{11cm}|}
Test & this is a test
\end{tabular}
\end{document}
