Tables

A table is used to write down a number of pieces of data about different things.

Table example

Name
ColourNumber of gears
Price
RangerSilver5£140
OutdoorBlue10£195
TourerRed15£189
StarburstSilver15£215
MountainWhite5£129

The title of the table tells us what the table is about.

The headings tell us what data is in each column.

To find out the colour of the tourer bike, you look across the Tourer row until it meets the colour column. So a Tourer bike is red!
