With this tool you can make text table in console easy and set up as you need.

The single required source, file CppConsoleTable.hpp is in the root directory. All you need to do is add

#include "CppConsoleTable.hpp"

// for convenience
using ConsoleTable = samilton::ConsoleTable;

to the files you want to use ConsoleTable. That's it.

With the ConsoleTable class, you could write:

// create an empty structure (null)
ConsoleTable table;

// add a number of double type
table[0][1] = 3.141;

// add a Boolean 
table[1][0] = true;

// add a number of int type
table[2][1] = 56;

// add a "const char[]" string (it also could be and std::string)
table[2][0] = "some";

You can also change the alignment of all objects in table (for default it's left):

// using constructor
ConsoleTable table(ConsoleTable::Alignment::right);

// or using a method
table.setAlignment(ConsoleTable::Alignment::right);

Full example of using:

#include <iostream>

#include "CppConsoleTable.hpp"

using namespace std;
using ConsoleTable = samilton::ConsoleTable;

int main()
{
	ConsoleTable table(ConsoleTable::Alignment::right);

	table[0][0] = "some";
	table[1][3] = true;
	table[2][1] = 10;
	table[3][3] = "bla";
	table[2][2] = 2.354;
	table[0][1] = false;

	cout << table;

	system("pause");
}

Output:
