When displaying tabular data, using the <table> element and its related elements (<td>, <th>, <tr>, etc.) is better than using generic <div> elements for several reasons:
*Accessibility: Screen readers and other assistive technologies can identify and interpret table structures, making it easier for users with disabilities to understand and navigate the data.
*Semantic meaning: Table elements provide clear semantic meaning to the content, allowing search engines and other machines to understand the data's structure and relationships.
*Easier styling: Table elements have built-in styling and layout rules, making it easier to create visually appealing and consistent table designs with less CSS.
*Improved readability: Table elements help to create a clear and organized presentation of data, making it easier for users to scan and understand the information.
Using <div> elements to create a table-like structure can lead to confusing and inaccessible content, so it's best to use the right tool for the job – the <table> element and its friends!
