How to print List as table in console application?
.net, c#
Solution
Your main tool would be
Console.WriteLine("{0,5} {1,10} {2,-10}", s1, s2, s3);
The `,5` and `,10` are width specifiers. Use a negative value to left-align.
Formatting is also possible:
Console.WriteLine("y = {0,12:#,##0.00}", y);
Or a Date with a width of 24 and custom formatting:
String.Format("Now = {0,24:dd HH:mm:ss}", DateTime.Now);
Edit, for C#6
With string interpolation you can now write
Console.WriteLine($"{s1,5} {s2,10} {s3,-10}");
Console.WriteLine($"y = {y,12:#,##0.00}");
You don't need to call `String.Format()` explicitly anymore:
string s = $"Now = {DateTime.Now,24:dd HH:mm:ss}, y = {y,12:#,##0.00}" ;
