Attendance table PROBLEMS

Hi everyone, I have attendance data that looks like this (in the image), I want to create an attendance table on the front-end, do you think it's better to make the date of the attendance as a header or the student name. if I choose the attendance date as a header that means that everyday the columns will increase one, and if I choose to make the student name as a header that means that I want a table that looks like this below, and I don't know how to implement it. name | name2 | name3 ------------------------- date 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 date2 | 2 | 2 | 2 date3 | 3 | 3 | 3 any ideas??
