  {id: 2, name: "bob",   created_at: "2000-01-02"},
  {id: 3, name: "carol", created_at: "2000-01-03"},
].to_html # => "<div class=\"html_format html_format_depth_0\"><table class=\"table html_format_type_array_of_hash\"><thead><tr><th>id</th><th>name</th><th>created_at</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>1</td><td>alice</td><td>2000-01-01</td></tr><tr><td>2</td><td>bob</td><td>2000-01-02</td></tr><tr><td>3</td><td>carol</td><td>2000-01-03</td></tr></tbody></table></div>"

# Hash
{id: 1, name: "alice", created_at: "2000-01-01"}.to_html # => "<div class=\"html_format html_format_depth_0\"><table class=\"table html_format_type_hash\"><tr><th>id</th><td>1</td></tr><tr><th>name</th><td>alice</td></tr><tr><th>created_at</th><td>2000-01-01</td></tr></table></div>"

# Array of Array
[
  [1, "alice", "2000-01-01"],
  [2, "bob",   "2000-01-02"],
  [3, "carol", "2000-01-03"],
].to_html # => "<div class=\"html_format html_format_depth_0\"><table class=\"table html_format_type_array_of_array\"><tbody><tr><td>1</td><td>alice</td><td>2000-01-01</td></tr><tr><td>2</td><td>bob</td><td>2000-01-02</td></tr><tr><td>3</td><td>carol</td><td>2000-01-03</td></tr></tbody></table></div>"

# Array
[0, 1, 2, 3].to_html # => "<div class=\"html_format html_format_depth_0\"><table class=\"table html_format_type_array\"><tbody><tr><td>0</td><td>1</td><td>2</td><td>3</td></tr></tbody></table></div>"

html_format(1) # => "<div class=\"html_format html_format_depth_0\"><table class=\"table html_format_type_object\"><tbody><tr><td>1</td></tr></tbody></table></div>"
