Possibly, although as it is possibly nicer to work with org tables, and
because my train was delayed 45 minutes on the way to work this morning,
here (attached as an org file with babel emacs lisp code) is one attempt
at a solution.

There is one bug in this code: for some reason, the dot code generated
by the emacs lisp code gets embedded in an org EXAMPLE block.  Not sure
why but I have to do something else now...  I'll try to come back to
this later.

Oh, I also changed your table so that each next step takes up a column
entry in the table.  This is not ideal but I didn't want to bother
parsing the actual table entries.
