The table data was entered on the easy-to-use TablePress admin screens. It was added to this page with the Shortcode [table id=<table-ID> /]. Note the built-in advanced features of the DataTables JavaScript library, like Sorting (click on a column head cell to sort), Searching (type something into the “Search” field to filter the data), and Pagination (use the arrow buttons buttons below the table to see more data). Also note the “Alternating Row Colors” and “Row Highlighting” features that are enabled for this table. By the way: It is even possible to use formulas in table cells!
Here’s another table that shows the possibilities of combining cells with HTML rowspan/colspan attributes, and that also automatically prints the table’s name and description to the page (above and below the table):

For more real-world examples, have a look at my baseball club’s website. There, you can see tables that are managed with TablePress in the sections Spielplan and Spieler (right below “Baseball-Team”) and in the sidebar. (The tables there have a different styling, via “Custom CSS” code, and contain some special features that are not part of TablePress.)
