I want to add a table in readme.md and I am using below code/lines but its not rendering properly
| Relational | Non-Relational |
|------------|----------------|
| Standardized | Non-Standardized |
| Vertically Scalable | Horizontally Scalable|
| Fixed Schema | Dynamic Schema |
| ACID | BASE |
| Efficient and reliable to handle complex code | Simple and flexible to handle significant changes but inefficient to handle complex |
I am displaying like this- (pic attached) Can someone please help?
As per my understanding it should render into a table?

Your table is in one line where it is supposed to be multiple lines which is causing it not to render properly. Below I corrected the table to not be in a single line.
| Relational | Non-Relational |
| ---------- | -------------- |
| Standardized | Non-Standardized |
| Vertically Scalable | Horizontally Scalable |
| Fixed Schema | Dynamic Schema |
| ACID | BASE |
Your final table should look like this:
Relational | Non-Relational |
---|---|
Standardized | Non-Standardized |
Vertically Scalable | Horizontally Scalable |
Fixed Schema | Dynamic Schema |
ACID | BASE |
If you would like to learn more about Markdown Tables, I would suggest you check out the Markdown Guide for Tables. In summary:
To add a table, use three or more hyphens (---) to create each column’s header, and use pipes (|) to separate each column. For compatibility, you should also add a pipe on either end of the row.
| Syntax | Description | | ----------- | ----------- | | Header | Title | | Paragraph | Text |
You can read the rest of the guide if you would like to know more like alignment or text formatting in tables.
