Subject: How to use Calc constants in an Org table?
Date: Thu, 05 Feb 2015 12:20:16 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <8761bgoba1.fsf@wmi.amu.edu.pl> (raw)
Hello Orgers,
I'd like Org to compute Fibonacci numbers for me (using a simplified
Binet formula, i.e., Fib(n)=round(phi^n)/sqrt(5)). Here's my
(unsuccessful) attempt:
| n | Fib(n) |
|---+--------------------------|
| 1 | round(phi / 2.2360680) |
| 2 | round(phi^2 / 2.2360680) |
| 3 | round(phi^3 / 2.2360680) |
| 4 | round(phi^4 / 2.2360680) |
| 5 | round(phi^5 / 2.2360680) |
| 6 | round(phi^6 / 2.2360680) |
| 7 | round(phi^7 / 2.2360680) |
| 8 | round(phi^8 / 2.2360680) |
#+TBLFM: @3$1..@>$1=1+@-1::@2$2..@>$2=round(phi^$1/sqrt(5))
I tried adding the line
#+CONSTANTS: phi=1.61803398875
to the file (and C-c C-c'd on it), but to no avail.
What am I doing wrong?
TIA,
--
