looking 4 py code: line up columns

[ichabod801]

I've done this before, I just can't remember where. It's not that hard. Loop through the columns, determining the maximum width of the string representations. Construct a format string (with {}'s) using the width information plus 1 or 2 spaces for a gutter. Loop through the rows, passing the row to the format method with * notation. Join the resulting strings with '\n'. You just have the added wrinkle of detecting numeric columns and putting that into the format specification.
