How to align the output as shown in screenshot - C#?

Question

As a Newbie to C#, I have some code in C#.

The Program is a kind of Daily Money Saving Algorithm!

I'm struggling to produce the output in some alignment way as shown in below image:

Code I have written:

CSharp
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;

namespace RemainingDaysCalculation
{
    internal class DailyMoneySavingMultiplier
    {
        public static void Main()
        {
            DateTime currentDate = DateTime.Now;
            int daysInYear = DateTime.IsLeapYear(currentDate.Year) ? 366 : 365;
            int daysLeftInYear = daysInYear - currentDate.DayOfYear; // Result is in range 0-365.
            int finisheddaysCount = daysInYear - daysLeftInYear;
            Console.WriteLine("daysLeftInYear is {0}", daysLeftInYear);
            Console.WriteLine("finishedDaysCount is {0}",finisheddaysCount);
            int savings = (daysInYear * (daysInYear + 1)) - (finisheddaysCount * (finisheddaysCount -1));
            Console.WriteLine(savings);

            //Case 2:
            Console.WriteLine("_________________________________");
            Console.WriteLine(" Day No || Daily Saving || Total Saved");
            for (int i=1; i <= daysInYear; i++)
            {


                Console.WriteLine("{0,-10} || {1,-10} || {2,5}", i, (i * 2), (i * (i + 1)));
                //Console.Write(i);
                //Console.Write(i * 2);
                //Console.Write(i * (i + 1));

            }
            Console.WriteLine("_________________________________");

        }
    }
}

Output:

Update:

I have tried the 2 ways from the given workarounds in this reference, but I'm getting the exception like:

@Rajoli Hari Krishna , based on my test, I reproduced your problem.

First, We need to set the column before we want to use ConsoleTable.

 var table = new ConsoleTable("Day No", "Daily Saving", "Total Saved");  

Second, Please add rows in the loop.

  for (int i = 1; i <= daysInYear; i++)  
            {  
                table.AddRow(i, (i * 2), (i * (i + 1)));  
            }  

Finally, you could use the following code to show the table in the console:

table.Write();  

Completed code example:

DateTime currentDate = DateTime.Now;  
            int daysInYear = DateTime.IsLeapYear(currentDate.Year) ? 366 : 365;  
            int daysLeftInYear = daysInYear - currentDate.DayOfYear; // Result is in range 0-365.  
            int finisheddaysCount = daysInYear - daysLeftInYear;  
            Console.WriteLine("daysLeftInYear is {0}", daysLeftInYear);  
            Console.WriteLine("finishedDaysCount is {0}", finisheddaysCount);  
            int savings = (daysInYear * (daysInYear + 1)) - (finisheddaysCount * (finisheddaysCount - 1));  
            Console.WriteLine(savings);  
            //Case 2:  
            Console.WriteLine("_________________________________");  
            var table = new ConsoleTable("Day No", "Daily Saving", "Total Saved");  
            for (int i = 1; i <= daysInYear; i++)  
            {  
                table.AddRow(i, (i * 2), (i * (i + 1)));  
            }  
  
            table.Write();  
  
            Console.ReadKey();  

Result:

Hope this could help you.
