The columns are called "groups" while the rows are called "periods."
Elements in the same groups share chemical properties, while those in periods share relative sizes of nuclei.
The another term used is Families. The vertical columns are referred as groups or families.
A vertical column on the Periodic table on the periodic table is called group. There are 18 groups on the table. These groups are also referred to as families. Each element in a group has the same number of valence electrons and, therefore, similar chemical properties (there are some exceptions though).
Periodic means reoccuring. On the periodic table, periodic refers to the elements in each group having some of the same simularities and some of the same properties.
The elements on the left (well, pretty much the whole table bar the far right side) are metals.
The term chemical period refers to the periodic table of elements; a row of that table can be called a period. The periods follow a certain pattern starting with metals on the left, moving through nonmetals and ending at an inert gas on the right. That's why the table is said to be periodic.
Vertical columns are known as groups.

The general term is a matrix. But you may be asking about a specific set of information, such as the periodic table?
The meaning is that chemical properties are periodically repeated in the table.
The another term used is Families. The vertical columns are referred as groups or families.
In database, Table refers to a structure which contains rows and columns. Data can be stored in these rows and columns in arranged manner.

The rows in periodic table are known as periods. The arrangement is such that elements with similar properties fall in the same period.
