Each row is of the table comprises a single vibhag. The row headers X and 0 indicate [[tali]] and [[khali]], respectively. The first tali is always denoted by an X; each additional tali is denoted by ascending numbers (2, 3, etc.). Khali is always written as a 0, which indicates the absence of a clap. A good example of how tali and khali are written out can be seen in the table for [[ektaal]]. Note how khali is always denoted by a 0 and | Each row is of the table comprises a single vibhag. The row headers X and 0 indicate [[tali]] and [[khali]], respectively. The first tali is always denoted by an X (X also indicates the [[sam]]); each additional tali is denoted by ascending numbers (2, 3, etc.). Khali is always written as a 0, which indicates the absence of a clap. A good example of how tali and khali are written out can be seen in the table for [[ektaal]]. Note how khali is always denoted by a 0 and talis start with an X, then increment (2, 3, 4). | ||

Some taals are asymmetrical and may have uneven numbers of matras in each row (or vibhag)(see [[roopak taal]]). In these cases, the space is simply left blank. In addition, some taals, like [[jhaptaal]], contain rests, which are denoted by the letter S. | ||
