Example of how to add tables to a worksheet. Tables in Excel are used to group rows and columns of data into a single structure that can be referenced in a formula or formatted collectively.

/*
* An example of how to add conditional formatting to an libxlsxwriter file.

* Conditional formatting allows you to apply a format to a cell or a
* range of cells based on certain criteria.
