Re: [O] How do I format numbers to an exported table to latex, produced by a code block?

[John Kitchin]

I am sure this is not the best way to do this, but it more or less does
what you want, which is put the tblfm line at the end (although you
could also format the table in the function.

This is somewhat fragile, i.e. it worked for me as is, and not if I
changed very many things in the headers.


#+name: post-wrapper
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :var data="" caption="" attributes="" post-attributes=""
(concat
 (when (not (string= "" attributes))
   (concat (mapconcat 'identity attributes "\n") "\n"))
 (when (not (string= "" caption))
   (format "#+caption: %s" caption))
 (mapconcat
  'identity
  (mapcar (lambda (rs) (concat "|" rs "|"))
          (loop for row in data
                collect
                (mapconcat (lambda (x) (format "%s" x)) row "|")))
  "\n")

 (when post-attributes
   (concat "\n" (mapconcat 'identity post-attributes "\n") "\n")))
#+END_SRC


#+BEGIN_SRC python :results value table raw :post post-wrapper(data=*this*, 
caption="", attributes="", post-attributes='("#+tblfm: $1=$1;%.3f :: $2=$2;%.3f 
"))
import numpy as np

return np.matrix([[.123456789, 2], [3, 4]])
#+END_SRC

#+RESULTS:
| 0.12345679 | 2 |
|          3 | 4 |
#+tblfm: $1=$1;%.3f :: $2=$2;%.3f
