I am trying to create a table in the IEEE conference paper that I am writing. The table is after two 2 para but when I typeset, it goes in the top the colum!
I cant understand why this is happening. I am writing this like below:
text.....
text...
text...
\begin{table}[!t]
\renewcommand{\arraystretch}{1.3}
\caption{A Simple Example Table}
\label{table_example}
\centering
\begin{tabular}{c||c}
\hline
\bfseries First & \bfseries Next\\
\hline\hline
1.0 & 2.0\\
\hline
\end{tabular}
\end{table}
text...
But the table goes above the text! Also, there should be two lines like:
Table 1
A SIMPLE EXAMPLE TABLE
but for my case it prints in a single line. Can anyone help please?

You should consider not changing any of the layout when submitting a paper. If tables should float to the top based on the conference paper class, then so-be-it.
However, you can force the floating behaviour of the
table
environment to stop based on the following two approaches:Use the
float
package and the accompanying[H]
float specifier.If this is your choice, consider reading:

specifierManually set a block that contains the table:
