Hello, I am working on an assignment in which the user is prompted if they work on a certain day and if they are they enter the time that they are working. At the end of the code we have to print a table with the days, start, and end. I tried experimenting to see if one fprintf statement would work better than multiple but I did not have luck with that. Usually increasing the field straightens the columns but in this case I'm having trouble understanding how to format this table so they are all aligned. Is this something that is possible with fprintf. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
