Latex

I wanted the alternative to vertical spacing in latex tables. I was trying to reduce some of the unnecessary whitespace in Labelled Frames in Latex. It turns out the (almost) analogy to \arraystretch is \tabcolsep:

\begin{figure}[tb]
  \renewcommand\arraystretch{1.0}
  \renewcommand\tabcolsep{0pt}
  \centering
  \begin{tabular}{lr}
    
   ...

  \end{tabular}
  \caption{Caption}
  \label{fig:label}
\end{figure}

This will make a very small table.
