Side-by-side tables

layout-ncol

Use the layout-ncol chunk option to organize output in columns, e.g., layout-ncol: 2 for two tables side-by-side.

```{r}
#| label: tbl-label
#| tbl-cap: Two tables
#| tbl-subcap: ["mtcars", "Just cars"]
#| layout-ncol: 2

library(knitr)

# table on the left
kable(head(mtcars[, 1:3]))

# table on the right
kable(head(cars))
```
