Its also important to try to keep the table simple and organized.Next, you want to title your table. Its important that those looking at your table know what theyre looking at! Then, title each row or column. This depends on how you decide to set up your graph whether you put your titles horizontally or vertically. Finally, you should be able to add in the values you found when you collected data. Click on Star for a Sample Table

Rows Vs. ColumnsIts important to know the difference between rows and columns when trying to create or read a graph. Rows are arranged horizontally, or from left to right. To visualize a row, think of a row in gardening. It goes lengthwise across the field. Columns are arranged vertically, or from top to bottom. To remember what a column is, think of a column in a newspaper. It goes up and down the page, never found going left to right.
