Django Template - Cannot iterate throught this list

Question

I am passing this object to my template from my view with the name student_collection

<class 'list'>: [[31, 'John', ‘Jacob', '1'], [31, 'Jeffrey', ‘Mark', '2'], [39, ‘Borris', ‘Hammer', '1']]

And accessing it as such in my template:

{% for rows in student_collection %} <tr> {% for items in rows %} {% for entry in items %} <td>{{ entry }}</td> {% endfor %} {% endfor %} </tr> {% endfor %}

I am getting an error at the point {% for entry in items %} django says 'int' object is not iterable why is that I was expecting to iterate through 31,John,Jacob,1 . Any help in this regard would be appreciated.

I was expecting to iterate through 31,John,Jacob,1

Then you wouldn't need that second inner loop. The first loop gives you each sublist/row in the list of rows, while the inner loop iterates through each row, producing each of the items/entries:

{% for rows in student_collection %} <tr> {% for item in row %} <td>{{ item }}</td> {% endfor %} </tr> {% endfor %}
