AngularJS Table creation with ng-repeat

Question

I get following response from database. about array of classes where classes are nested in groups and finally students.

"Response":[
    {
      "Id":1,"Name":"Class 1","Location":"Building 1","Groups":[
        {
          "Id":1,"Name":"GB1","Students":[
            {
              "Id":1,"Name":"Mike","RollNo":"1","Performance":{
                "Id":1,"Math":"90","Physics":"70","English":"60"
              }
            },{
              "Id":2,"Name":"John","RollNo":"2","Performance":{
                "Id":2,"Math":"90","Physics":"70","English":"60"
              }
            },{
              "Id":3,"Name":"Muffin","RollNo":"3","Performance":{
                "Id":3,"Math":"90","Physics":"90","English":"90"
              }
            }
          ]
        },  {
          "Id":2,"Name":"GB2","Students":[
            {
              "Id":4,"Name":"Ema","RollNo":"1","Performance":{
                "Id":4,"Math":"90","Physics":"70","English":"60"
              }
            },{
              "Id":5,"Name":"Sunny","RollNo":"2","Performance":{
                "Id":5,"Math":"90","Physics":"70","English":"60"
              }
            },{
              "Id":6,"Name":"Jen","RollNo":"3","Performance":{
                "Id":6,"Math":"90","Physics":"90","English":"90"
              }
            }
          ]
        }
      ]
    },{
      "Id":2,"Name":"Class 2","Location":"Building 1","Groups":[
        {
          "Id":3,"Name":"G1","Students":[
            {
              "Id":7,"Name":"Ron","RollNo":"1","Performance":{
                "Id":7,"Math":"90","Physics":"70","English":"60"
              }
            },{
              "Id":8,"Name":"Kaka","RollNo":"2","Performance":{
                "Id":8,"Math":"90","Physics":"70","English":"60"
              }
            },{
              "Id":9,"Name":"Mark","RollNo":"3","Performance":{
                "Id":9,"Math":"90","Physics":"90","English":"90"
              }
            }
          ]
        },  {
          "Id":4,"Name":"G2","Students":[
            {
              "Id":10,"Name":"Lily","RollNo":"1","Performance":{
                "Id":10,"Math":"90","Physics":"70","English":"60"
              }
            },{
              "Id":11,"Name":"Lina","RollNo":"2","Performance":{
                "Id":11,"Math":"90","Physics":"70","English":"60"
              }
            },{
              "Id":12,"Name":"Linda","RollNo":"3","Performance":{
                "Id":12,"Math":"90","Physics":"90","English":"90"
              }
            }
          ]
        }
      ]
    }
  ]

Now I want to create a table like this using colspan. enter image description here Could anyone help me to do this using ng-repeat and angularjs ? can't figure out how to merge this columns dynamically. So far I managed to do last part using flatten array option.

To solve this problem, you will need to ng-repeat inside the <td> instead of <tr>, for most of the time. Other than that, it is just rather tedious work parsing around your object and align them in the manner you want.

Here is the plnkr: http://plnkr.co/edit/aNVrMa4E8gLkVYlxzdHF?p=preview

I am poor at css. Maybe you can do something about that.

Hi thank you for your answer. I was wondering If it is possible to make the solution using colspan. but this one looks also great!

You are welcome! You can use colspan if you want to, just make sure your ng-repeat is placed at the correct cell. :)

Although in this solution I had to add add few JavaScript method I still expect to see a better solution and accept as an answer. DEMO

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html ng-app = "demo">

  <head>
    <script data-require="angular.js@*" data-semver="1.3.0-beta.5" src="https://code.angularjs.org/1.3.0-beta.5/angular.js"></script>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css" />
    <script src="script.js"></script>
  </head>

  <body ng-controller = "demoCtrl">
    <h1>Hello Plunker!</h1>

    <br>

    <table>

        <tr>
         <td>Class name</td>
         <td colspan="{{lengthCount(r)}}"  ng-repeat ="r in response"  >
           {{r.Name}}
         </td>
      </tr>

    <tr>
         <td>Group name</td>
         <td colspan="{{gr.Students.length}}"  ng-repeat ="gr in Groups"  >
           {{gr.Name}}
         </td>
      </tr>
      <tr>
         <td>Student name</td>
         <td  ng-repeat ="st in Studs"  >
           {{st.Name}}
         </td>
      </tr>
      <tr>
         <td>Maths</td>
         <td  ng-repeat ="st in Studs"  >
           {{st.Performance.Math}}
         </td>
      </tr>
       <tr>
         <td>Physics</td>
         <td  ng-repeat ="st in Studs"  >
           {{st.Performance.Physics}}
         </td>
      </tr>
       <tr>
         <td>English</td>
         <td  ng-repeat ="st in Studs"  >
