What's the problem with: #+name: fibonacci-inputs | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 |  5 |  6 |  7 |  8 |  9 | 10 | | 2 | 4 | 6 | 8 | 10 | 12 | 14 | 16 | 18 | 20 | #+name: fibonacci-seq #+begin_src emacs-lisp :var fib-inputs=fibonacci-inputs   (defun fibonacci (n)     (if (or (= n 0) (= n 1))         n       (+ (fibonacci (- n 1)) (fibonacci (- n 2)))))   (mapcar (lambda (row)             (mapcar #'fibonacci row)) fib-inputs) #+end_src #+RESULTS: fibonacci-seq | 1 | 1 | 2 |  3 |  5 |   8 |  13 |  21 |   34 |   55 | | 1 | 3 | 8 | 21 | 55 | 144 | 377 | 987 | 2584 | 6765 | ?

For this purpose, I looked at the example at http://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/babel/intro.html#arguments-to-source-code-blocks It seems that this is using the old syntax, eg. #+tblname, which seems to be just #+name now.  But even with this change I can not reproduce the result.  With the following code, I get the message "Symbol's value as variable is void: fib-inputs" when doing C-c on the src.  I am sure there are more changes I need to make, but I can't figure it out.  Any help appreciated. Here is the code so far: #+name: fibonacci-inputs | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 |  5 |  6 |  7 |  8 |  9 | 10 | | 2 | 4 | 6 | 8 | 10 | 12 | 14 | 16 | 18 | 20 | #+name: fibonacci-seq(fib-inputs=fibonacci-inputs) #+begin_src emacs-lisp   (defun fibonacci (n)     (if (or (= n 0) (= n 1))         n       (+ (fibonacci (- n 1)) (fibonacci (- n 2)))))   (mapcar (lambda (row)             (mapcar #'fibonacci row)) fib-inputs) #+end_src All the best, Christian -- Christian Wittern, Kyoto
