tables
Data in grid form
Tables are flat surfaces raised on legs, used for eating, working, or display.
A table of data arranges information in rows and columns: The report includes tables showing quarterly earnings.
To table something means to postpone discussion (American) or to bring it forward for discussion (British)—opposite meanings that cause confusion.
Under the table describes payments made secretly to avoid taxes or scrutiny.
To turn the tables is to reverse a situation's advantage.
