Using multirow and multicoloum in Table in Overleaf

Question

I am trying to make a table where the first column is multiple columns (2 columns) and also multiple rows (2 rows). The error is on the first column (Aspects). How to make it work?

\begin{table}[htb]
\centering
\begin{tabular}{l|c|c|c|c|c}
\hline

\multirow{2}{c}{}\multicolumn{2}{c|}{Aspects} & \multicolumn{4}{c}{Methods} \\
\cline{3-6}
 & & Binomial Test & Tangram & Stereoscope & BayesPrism\\
\hline
\multirow{10}{*}{\begin{turn}{270}Total Number\end{turn}} & Cell Type 0 & 3381 & 25  & 1200 &  331    \\
                               & Cell Type 1 & 1903 & 40  & 3360 &  3468    \\
                               & Cell Type 2 & 3466 & 0   & 1357 &  2729    \\
                               & Cell Type 3 & 3468 & 40  & 1711 &  412   \\
                               & Cell Type 4 & 3406 & 64  & 1996 &  3458   \\
                               & Cell Type 5 & 2934 & 31  & 1512 &  1772    \\
                               & Cell Type 6 & 494  & 55  & 3463 &  3468   \\
                               & Cell Type 7 & 3159 & 30  & 2367 &  3467    \\
                               & Cell Type 8 & 3454 & 53  & 3275 &  3456    \\
                               & Cell Type 9 & 3281 & 18  & 1320 &  1451    \\
            \hline
\multicolumn{2}{c|}{Total Variables}     & 28,946 & 356 & 21,443 & 23,962\\
\multicolumn{2}{c|}{Residual Error Mean} & 3.04   & 3.50 & 2.92  & 2.93 \\
\hline
\end{tabular}
\caption{Total Number of Each Cell Types for The Model \ref{regression}}
\label{total_cell}
\end{table}

Please make it a complete, but minimal document. Add `\documentclass`, `\begin{document}`, `\end{document}`, and the necessary packages. — Pieter van Oostrum, Feb 07 '22 at 11:02

This line is completely messed up:

\multirow{2}{c}{}\multicolumn{2}{c|}{Aspects}

The \multirow has the wrong syntax, and moreover, \multirow must be inside \multicolumn if you want to combine them (see the multirow manual).

Also I added a \multicolumn{1}{l}{} to get rid of the vertical bar in the 2x2 cell.

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{multirow}
\usepackage{rotating}

\begin{document}

\begin{table}[htb]
\centering
\begin{tabular}{l|c|c|c|c|c}
\hline

\multicolumn{2}{c|}{\multirow{2}{*}{Aspects}} & \multicolumn{4}{c}{Methods} \\
\cline{3-6}
\multicolumn{1}{l}{} & & Binomial Test & Tangram & Stereoscope & BayesPrism\\
\hline
\multirow{10}{*}{\begin{turn}{270}Total Number\end{turn}} & Cell Type 0 & 3381 & 25  & 1200 &  331    \\
                               & Cell Type 1 & 1903 & 40  & 3360 &  3468    \\
                               & Cell Type 2 & 3466 & 0   & 1357 &  2729    \\
                               & Cell Type 3 & 3468 & 40  & 1711 &  412   \\
                               & Cell Type 4 & 3406 & 64  & 1996 &  3458   \\
                               & Cell Type 5 & 2934 & 31  & 1512 &  1772    \\
                               & Cell Type 6 & 494  & 55  & 3463 &  3468   \\
                               & Cell Type 7 & 3159 & 30  & 2367 &  3467    \\
                               & Cell Type 8 & 3454 & 53  & 3275 &  3456    \\
                               & Cell Type 9 & 3281 & 18  & 1320 &  1451    \\
            \hline
\multicolumn{2}{c|}{Total Variables}     & 28,946 & 356 & 21,443 & 23,962\\
\multicolumn{2}{c|}{Residual Error Mean} & 3.04   & 3.50 & 2.92  & 2.93 \\
\hline
\end{tabular}
\caption{Total Number of Each Cell Types for The Model \ref{regression}}
\label{total_cell}
\end{table}

\end{document}

It does make sense. I tried the first one before similar to that but messed up. Your suggestion is much better. — MK Huda, Feb 07 '22 at 12:14
