Horizontal alignment in table with siunitx package

I'm doing some tables but I can't find the right alignment using siunitx. I believe that the first and last column numbers should be more to the left and the second column numbers more to the right. I can't find a way to adjust this.



Here is a minimum working example:



documentclassarticle

usepackagebooktabs
usepackagesiunitx

begindocument

begintable[ht]
centering
begintabularSSS
toprule
Coefficient & Iterations & Spectral condition\midrule
1e0 & 112 & 2e3 \
1e-2 & 768 & 1.7e4 \
1e-4 & 2961 & 3.8e5 \
1e-6 & 7760 & 3.7e7 \
bottomrule
endtabular
captionFirst experiment.
labeltab:firstexperiment
endtable%

enddocument


It looks like the first table, but I want it to look like the table below.

    Your column heads (in S columns) should simply be between braces – text should be removed.

Centring heads in S columns depends on the formats of the numbers in the column, so I specified the format in each column. Does this code produce what you want?

    Welcome to TeX.SE! It is not too surprising that the alignment is not what you want since you are using the S column also for the headers. There are certainly more advanced options (there seems to be an almost infinite number of options when it comes to design tables, the pgfmanual is short in comparison), but to very first approximation I'd do

      @Migue Without a crystal ball it is impossible to guess what you want. If you make a details description of what you want to achieve I will have a look at it (but only in a few hours, will be leaving know).

For the last 10-11 months, I am working in a research industry in France where my task is to debug C++ spaghetti code written over a period of several years by my current supervisor. It is a team of 2: just I and my supervisor. Diurnally, I am posed with a "bug of the day" to get out of this C++ code. My supervisor generally gives me about 15-30 minutes to solve it and then accosts me about whether or not the task is completed and then rinses and repeats this until the end of the day.

This Kransekake is a traditional Scandinavian baker's confection. Confectionery is the art of making confections , which are food items that are rich in sugar and carbohydrates. Exact definitions are difficult. [1] In general, though, confectionery is divided into two broad and somewhat overlapping categories, bakers' confections and sugar confections.
