What is the difference between Table and Matrix and List in Report View?

1

So far in my reports I have been using tables and binding my datasets to those. But today I had to use a List to create a card (I'm still trying to understand how it works).

When to use Table, Matrix and List and their differences?

According to documentation :

Table

This is a columnar report. It works like a perfect array. You can make some settings, but it's that classic report with rows and columns.

Today it's like a limited array by configuration.

Matrix

The main differences are being able to merge cells and create relationships with other data, as if you had one table inside another.

In the background, the current versions use Tablix that brings together the best of the two. You can pick up previous settings for one model or another, but it's the same mechanism.

List

Actually should be called document since it is free to put the fields where you want.
