print formating for matrix/table

[Vincent Davis]

I do have numpy but am using lists as did not need any functions of array.
Well maybe print now. I am new to python and don't really know the details
about the difference between lists and arrays. I do know that there are
different/additional functions available for arrays.Anyway is this the best
solution, convert the list to an array before printing?

Thanks
Vincent Davis
