My question builds on code from this question: original question/answer

What I am trying to achieve:

  1. I want to use pgfplots to build a table, where the header row is automatically added as first column to the table (sort of a header column).
  2. Less important: I want to add rotated header rows/columns below the table and after the last row, that give an explanation of what is seen in these axes.

To clarify, I have prepared a little graphic:

Top: MWE/What I have. Bottom: What I want

My main problem:

My main problem is how to get access to the columns header names by index, as can be seen in the code.

MWE:

\documentclass[10pt,twocolumn,letterpaper]{article}

\usepackage[table]{xcolor}
\usepackage{pgfplotstable}

%for confusion table

\pgfplotstableset{

You can replace

    %%% my try to replicate the header row starts here
     \xdef\III{0}
     \ifnum\III=\pgfplotstablecol\relax
         \def\addedContent{ \pgfplotstablecolname  &}%
     \else
         \def\addedContent{}%
     \fi
    %%% my try ends here: problem, I dont have access to the column header names

by

 \ifnum0=\pgfplotstablecol\relax
     \pgfplotstablegetcolumnnamebyindex\pgfplotstablerow\of\pgfplotstabletypesetfile@opt@@\to\tempcolname
     \def\addedContent{ \tempcolname  &}%
 \else
     \def\addedContent{}%
 \fi

Here, \pgfplotstablegetcolumnnamebyindex is defined as follows:

% Defines #3 to be the column name of the column with index '#1'.
%
% #1: a column index (starting with 0)
% #2: a loaded table structure
% #3: an output macro name.
\def\pgfplotstablegetcolumnnamebyindex#1\of#2\to#3{%
  \pgfplotslistselect#1\of#2\to#3\relax
}%

And \pgfplotstabletypesetfile@opt@@ is a temporary name of the inline table. If you happen to want to typeset a loaded table, replace this token by the table you are typesetting.

The rest of the question is sort of \tikzmark exercise. So I will leave to you.
