Including Blanks in the Heading

You can include blanks in the headings. For example, the heading for the column named NAME is the word Name centered over the data. This is accomplished by specifying leading blanks in the heading. To include leading blanks as part of the literal, a special character, here the back slash, is used. The heading for the second column, ADDRESS, does not require a special leading character. The blanks are embedded to provide a two‑word heading, "Full Address."
