Hi,
based on a post on
http://emacs.stackexchange.com/questions/20129/how-can-i-filter-table-in-org-mode
about filtering a table row-wise, I want to write a filter to select rows
which matches some values in a list:
#+NAME: table1
| col1 | col2 | col3 | col4 | col5 |
|-------+------+------+------+------|
| row0 | 0 | CH | CH | 0 |
| row1 | 2 | D | CN | 5 |
| row2 | 4 | USA | PL | 10 |
| row3 | 6 | CN | D | 15 |
| row4 | 8 | JP | USA | 20 |
| row5 | 10 | PL | PL | 25 |
| row6 | 12 | USA | JP | 30 |
| row7 | 14 | D | CN | 35 |
| row8 | 16 | PL | USA | 40 |
| row9 | 18 | CN | D | 45 |
| row10 | 20 | CH | CH | 50 |
I like to filter col4 for "USA" and "CN"
#+NAME: my-filter
#+BEGIN_SRC elisp :var tbl=table1 val='("" "USA" "CN") :colnames y
(cl-loop for row in tbl
if (member (nth 3 row) val)
collect row into newtbl
finally return newtbl)
#+END_SRC
with result
#+RESULTS: my-filter
| row1 | 2 | D | CN | 5 |
| row4 | 8 | JP | USA | 20 |
| row7 | 14 | D | CN | 35 |
| row8 | 16 | PL | USA | 40 |
My questions:
1) How can I preserve the column names in the result? The code on
http://emacs.stackexchange.com/questions/20129/how-can-i-filter-table-in-org-mode
preserves the table header.
2) Without the "" in the list, only rows matching the last element "CN"
are selected. So I think the code is wrong.
Are there any ideas to improve the code?
Thanks, Sven
