Make tabular span textwidth exactly [duplicate]

This question already has an answer here:
How to force a table into page width?
7 answers
Consider this example:
documentclass{report}
usepackage{lipsum}
begin{document}
begin{tabular}{lll}
A & B & lipsum[1][1-3]
end{tabular}
end{document}
In the output:
the last column goes out of the bounds of the page. I could constrain the last column by usingbegin{tabular}{llp{3cm}}. However, it would be more convenient to make the table span textwidth automatically. How to do it?

with tabularx package is simple:
documentclass{report}
usepackage{tabularx} % <---
usepackage{lipsum}
noindent
begin{document}
begin{tabularx}{linewidth}{llX} % table width is determined with linewidth
% at least one column had to be `X` type
A & B & lipsum[66]
end{tabularx}
noindent
begin{tabularx}{linewidth}{@{} llX @{}} % border tabcolsep is suppressed
A & B & lipsum[66]
end{tabularx}
begin{table}[htb] % table is in float environment
begin{tabularx}{linewidth}{@{}llX@{}} % border tabcolsep is suppressed
A & B & lipsum[66]
end{tabularx}
end{table}
end{document}
