how can I use the function "table" in a loop when the number of input variables changes ?

Hi, how can I use the function "table" in a loop when the number of input variables var1,...,varN, in T = table(var1,...,varN) changes ?
For example, I have something similar, where I have to specify the number of columns of my matrix A to create a table:
A = [ 4 0 0
56 6 8
164 18 40
159 13 139];
T = table(A(:,1), A(:,2), A(:,3), 'VariableNames', {'col 1', 'col 2', 'col 3'})
However, my matrix A changes number of columns several times and I would like to find an automatic way to create tables in a loop without changing the number of table entries every time manually.. The best for me would be something like this:
for i = 1 : 5
T{i} = table(A{i}, 'VariableNames', VarNames_array)
end

T = array2table(A);
if you want to specify variable names "col#",
T = array2table(A), 'VariableNames', compose('col%d',1:size(A,2)));
