def display_table(in_list):
""" Function to display 2D list in tabular format """

if i == 0:
print('\t', end='') ## <- This tab is not cosidered
else:
print(f'[{i-1}]', end='\t')
print()
for i, row in enumerate(in_list):
for j, value in enumerate(row):
if j==0:
print(f'[{i}]', end='\t')
print(f'{value}', end='\t')

@hyderkh Thanks for the report on this. I actually repro the same issue, both in the interactive window and in our notebook editor. Looks like we might be accidentally stripping out leading whitespace.
