Hello,
I have created a table with the below code.
It does work as expected, however I am sure I could have done it in a different way, more efficient, probably using lists as I am repeating practically the same thing for many rows, just changing the integers. But I can't figure out how...
Could you please help me to understand how this could be modified?
Thanks!
Kind regards
Valeria
