Difference between decision table and decision tree

The following are the differences between a decision table and a decision tree.

Decision table Decision tree
Representation Uses a tabular format with rows and columns. Uses a graphical tree structure with nodes and branches.
Complexity handling More suitable for handling complex combinations of conditions and actions. More visual and intuitive but can become complex with many decision points.
Readability Easier to read for complex scenarios with many conditions. More visual and may be better for illustrating a simple sequence of decisions.
Space efficiency

More space-efficient when dealing with a large number of conditions and actions, as they use a compact tabular format.

May become visually cluttered in such cases.
