Prettier doesn't make my markdown table prettier tho. This is what i did

prompt

Given the following markdown table

| input | output l
| -- | -- |
| 2.6 | 3 |
| 2.5 | 2 |
| 2.4 | 2 |
| 1.6 | 2 |
| 1.5 | 2 |
| 1.4 | 1 |

Align the vertical bar. Align number to the left

output

Here's the table with the vertical bars aligned and numbers left-aligned:

| input | output l |
|-------|----------|
| 2.6   | 3        |
| 2.5   | 2        |
| 2.4   | 2        |
| 1.6   | 2        |
| 1.5   | 2        |
| 1.4   | 1        |

Each column has been padded so that the vertical bars line up consistently, and the numbers are aligned to the left as requested.

yeah, you formatted a markdown table. now you're just repeating yourself. Prettier handles that just fine. I have the Prettier VSCode extension and set it as default formatter on save and this gets done automatically for me.
