Alignment

The keyword alignment can be a Symbol or a vector of Symbol.

If it is a symbol, we have the following behavior:

• :l or :L: the text of all columns will be left-aligned;
• :c or :C: the text of all columns will be center-aligned;
• :r or :R: the text of all columns will be right-aligned;
• Otherwise it defaults to :r.

If it is a vector, then it must have the same number of symbols as the number of columns in data. The i-th symbol in the vector specify the alignment of the i-th column using the same symbols as described previously.

julia> data = Any[ f(a) for a = 0:30:90, f in (sind,cosd,tand)];

julia> pretty_table(data; alignment=:l)
