Table spills out of the page margin
TeX - LaTeX Asked by 1049 on December 14, 2020
I am just learning LaTex. I used stata and got the following
{
defsym#1{ifmmode^{#1}else(^{#1})fi}
begin{tabular}{l*{3}{ccc}l}
hline
multicolumn{11}{l}{textit{Panel A: }}
hlinehline
&multicolumn{3}{c}{Overall} &multicolumn{3}{c}{Set Household} &multicolumn{3}{c}{Non-set Household} & multicolumn{1}{l}{T-test}
& count& mean& sd& count& mean& sd& count& mean& sd &
hline
Average Age of the household respondent & 5000& 44.7& 12.8& 3400& 44.4& 12.5& 1016& 44.9& 13.1& 0.511
& & & & & & & & & & (0.87)
Percentage of Married & 4000& 0.86& 0.35& 345& 0.87& 0.34& 800& 0.85& 0.35& -0.014
& & & & & & & & & & (-0.88)
Number of family that are dependent in the income & 99& 0.83& 0.67& 94& 0.79& 0.70& 5000& 0.86& 0.65 & 0.070sym{*}
& & & & & & & & & & (2.29)
hline
multicolumn{11}{l}{textit{Panel B: }}
hlinehline
hline
multicolumn{11}{l}{textit{Panel C: }}
hlinehline
hlinehline
multicolumn{2}{l}{footnotesize textit{t} statistics in parentheses}
multicolumn{2}{l}{footnotesize sym{*} (p<0.05), sym{**} (p<0.01), sym{***} (p<0.001)}
end{tabular}
}
I edited the table and added Panel B and C later on as I generated new tables via stata. I am suing the following tex file to create my document as I have several tables
documentclass[a4paper]{article}
usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
usepackage[english]{babel}
usepackage{graphicx}
usepackage{booktabs}
usepackage{array}
usepackage{paralist}
usepackage{verbatim}
usepackage{amssymb}
usepackage{amsmath}
usepackage{setspace}
onehalfspacing
usepackage[parfill]{parskip}

input{d.tex}
end{table}
begin{table}[h]
centering

input{m.tex}
end{table}
end{document}
I have tried the following codes
1st
begin{tabular}{ |p{3cm}||p{3cm}|p{3cm}|p{3cm}| |p{3cm}||p{3cm}|p{3cm}|p{3cm}| |p{3cm}||p{3cm}|}
2nd
begin{tabular}{|l*{3}{ccc}l|}
3rd
resizebox{textwidth}{p{3cm}}{begin{tabular}{l*{3}{ccc}l}
4th
begin{tabular}{linewidth}{l*{3}{ccc}l}
but i got error and/or it did not solve my issue and the table still spilled out of the page. I hope someone here can help me resolve this issue i would be really thankful.

Since you mentioned in the comments, that Panel B and Panel C will contain entries belonging to the same columns as the entries in panel A, I would suggest the following slightly different layout versions. In both, I have places "Panel A" belos the column headers in order to avoid repeating them for every panel. In order to visually separate them "Panel x" from the surrounding table, I have either used two horizontal lnes or a ombination of indentation and small vertical white space:

Here is a proposition with makecell, multirow, booktabs and geometry, reducing slightly the font size and the intercolumn spacing:
