Formatted output in io.ascii can generate incorrect column type #335
Description
The a column is formatted with the formats kwarg but the output column is misinterpreted as a string-valued column because of the included spaces:
In [30]: io.ascii.write([[1, 2]], names=['a', 'b'], formats={'a':'%5.2f'})
a b
" 1.00" 2Expected output is:
In [31]: asciitable.write([[1, 2]], names=['a', 'b'], formats={'a':'%.2f'})
a b
1.00 2Have not yet looked at the code to see where and how to fix this.
