Problem with LaTeX.

So I just solved a problem and in the solution I wanted to make a table. But somehow, I'm not getting the required output.

The syntax I used was as follows : \begin{table}{cr} Header & Header & Header & Header \ \hline data & data & data & data \ data & data & data & data \

\end{table}

Can someone help me out please?

It doesn't seem like the current formatting on Brilliant.org supports tables, Bob K. tried it once a few days ago without success, and I don't get a table rendered properly either.

I found this, not sure if the website doesn't support it or there's some problem with my latex syntax.

I'm not an expert so I don't know if your syntax is completely correct, but I tried copying an example LaTeX table from internet still without proper formatting.

We do not support the tabular environment. However, you can use the array environment, with the same result

For example, use the syntax: \begin{array}{l | c | r | l} Header & Header & Header & Header \ \hline data & data & data & data \ \hline data & data & data & data \ \end{array}

and you will get:

$\begin{array}{l | c | r | l} Header & Header & Header & Header \\ \hline data & data & data & data \\ \hline data & data & data & data \\ \end{array}$
