Hi

I have the following table 
| name | pos | rango | weight |
|------+-----+-------+--------|
|      |  23 |   329 |    307 |
|      |  71 |   329 |    259 |
|      |  77 |   333 |    257 |
|      |  58 |   333 |    276 |
|      |  45 |   329 |    285 |
|      |  47 |   330 |    284 |
|      |  71 |   329 |    259 |
|      |  77 |   333 |    257 |
|      |  77 |   333 |    257 |
|      | 155 |   310 |    156 |
|      | 164 |   325 |    162 |
|      | 203 |   330 |    128 |
#+TBLFM: $4=($3+1)-$2

I might be forced to add quite a bit of additional columns to that table
making it difficult to read. So I thought to transpose the table as
this, but how can I calculate the last row, using a calc operation.





| Name   |     |     |     |     |     |     |     |     |     |     |     |     |
|--------+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----|
| pos    |  23 |  71 |  77 |  58 |  45 |  47 |  71 |  77 |  77 | 155 | 164 | 203 |
| rango  | 329 | 329 | 333 | 333 | 329 | 330 | 329 | 333 | 333 | 310 | 325 | 330 |
| weight |     |     |     |     |     |     |     |     |     |     |     |     |

I tried 

#+TBLFM: @4$2..@4$13=(@3$2+1..@3$13+1)-(@2$2..@2$13);f1
but it did not work, of course I could try out to set a formula for each
cell but frankly this would not be practical.

Any suggestions?

thanks
