If I enter just the way it's on $\LaTeX$ I get lines all over the place. Unfortunately my knowledge of $\LaTeX$ doesn't extend beyond using Mathjax.

Try this for a start:

\begin{array}{c|c|c|}
* & e & r \\
\hline e & e & r \\
\hline r & r & r^2
\end{array}

Sometimes I find this site to be helpful as well when I want to draw a quick table without much customization.
