I have a table with values. See the code:
\documentclass[paper = landscape, pagesize]{scrartcl}
\usepackage{siunitx}
\begin{document}
\setlength\tabcolsep{3pt}
\begin{tabular}{rSSSSSSSSSSS}
$k$ & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & 5 & 6 & 7 & 8 & 9 & 10 & 11\\
$\frac{\vartheta}{\si{\celsius}}$ & 30 & 35 & 40 & 45 & 50 & 55 & 60 & 65 & 70 & 75 & 80\\
$\frac{U_{AB,m}(\vartheta)}{\si{\mV}}$ & 14,9 & 15,8 & 7,7 & 18,3 & 19 & 20 & 21,1 & 22,2 & 24,3 & 26,9 & 30,1\\
$\frac{R_{i}(\vartheta)}{\si{\ohm}}$ & 4,26162 & 3,29091 & 3,38843 & 2,0983 & 0,91519 & ,053 & -,70179 & -1,45605 & -1,13902 & -,28405 & 1,21793
\end{tabular}\\[\baselineskip]
Some text from Wikipedia\footnote{https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Entropy}: In statistical thermodynamics, entropy is a measure of the number of microscopic configurations that a thermodynamic system can have when in a state as specified by some macroscopic variables.\\[\baselineskip]
\begin{tabular}{rccccccccccc}
$k$ & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & 5 & 6 & 7 & 8 & 9 & 10 & 11\\
$\frac{\vartheta}{\si{\celsius}}$ & 30 & 35 & 40 & 45 & 50 & 55 & 60 & 65 & 70 & 75 & 80\\
$\frac{U_{AB,m}(\vartheta)}{\si{\mV}}$ & 14,9 & 15,8 & 17,7 & 18,3 & 19 & 20 & 21,1 & 22,2 & 24,3 & 26,9 & 30,1\\
$\frac{R_{i}(\vartheta)}{\si{\ohm}}$ & 4,26162 & 3,29091 & 3,38843 & 2,0983 & 0,91519 & 0,053 & -0,70179 & -1,45605 & -1,13902 & -0,28405 & 1,21793
\end{tabular}
\end{document}
And the result:
But why is there so much space between the columns compared to for example a c
-column. Even if I use very small space between the columns: \setlength\tabcolsep{3pt}
.
Why it happens? How can I solve it?
Thank you for your help and effort in advance!

You should guide
siunitx
by providing a propertable-format
in the column definition:The results is still wider, because it always reserves space for 2.5 digits, adds leading zeros and uses
-
in math mode.Maybe you could also transpose the whole table to 4 columns and 12 rows. Then you probably would have less trouble fitting it on a page. Also check out: My table doesn't fit; what are my options?
