explanation : 

>>> table = {'Sjoerd': 4127, 'Jack': 4098, 'Dcab': 7678}
>>> for name, phone in table.items():
...     print '{0:10} ==> {1:10d}'.format(name, phone)
...
Jack       ==>       4098
Dcab       ==>       7678
Sjoerd     ==>       4127

Above result should be the following. I believe 'table' is dictionary and it's sorting the items based on key values.

Dcab       ->       7678
Jack       ->       4098
Sjoerd     ->       4127
