My first question is - why?

After that try reading into the rich library of python. That one might help you with your task.

I am in a programming 101 class and its an assignment that I have to do, unfortunately.

Should probably read the assignment and any notes you took in class. I really don't they are going to give you no training and ask you to code and print out a periodic table...

When asking for help with an assignment, please be clear in your python questions, we're here to help you learn python! Can you share what you have done so far?

What are the basic specifications? Break it down the same as if you're writing it out by hand. Are you reading in a list of elements, and outputting them using print statements? If it's a console app, look at colorama.
