Is there a way (something like a package) that if I write the code:



begin{table}[]
begin{tabular}{lr}
Country & Counted \
Australia & 690 \
Germany & 1000 \
Poland & 240 \
India & 5397
end{tabular}
end{table}


I get automatically the output like:



begin{table}[]
begin{tabular}{|l|r|}
hline
Country & Counted \ hline
Australia & 690 \ hline
Germany & 1000 \ hline
Poland & 240 \ hline
India & 5397 \ hline
end{tabular}
end{table}

I assume the purpose of this is to reduce the typing you have to do? If so, one option is to use a macro. (If this is not the purpose, I will delete this answer)

Encasing a table in lots and lots of vertical and horizontal lines pretty much guarantees that the result will look like something that is viewed through a barred prison cell window. Not exactly inviting! It's certainly true that the "prison cell window look" is encountered rather frequently in scientific publications. However, that not a truly good reason for continuing this visually and aesthetically dubious practice.



My idea of making the table even better looking would be to (a) use no vertical bars at all, (b) use few, but well-spaced, horizontal bars, and (c) align the numbers in the data column on their (implicit) decimal marker.



enter image description here



documentclass{article}
usepackage{siunitx} % for 'S' column type
usepackage{booktabs}% for toprule, midrule, and bottomrule macros
begin{document}

noindent
begin{tabular}{@{} lr @{}}
Country & Counted \
Australia & 690 \
Germany & 1000 \
Poland & 240 \
India & 5397
end{tabular}

begin{tabular}{|l|r|}
hline
Country & Counted \ hline
Australia & 690 \ hline
Germany & 1000 \ hline
Poland & 240 \ hline
India & 5397 \ hline
end{tabular}
qquad
%% do consider the following approach:
begin{tabular}{@{} lS[table-format=4.0] @{}}
toprule
Country & {Counted} \ % 'Counted' is placed in curly braces
midrule
Australia & 690 \
Germany & 1000 \
