I don't know python and cannot try it out here either ... but it should
be exactly the same thing:
build and return a list that consists of lists (each table row one list)
and 'hline symbols (each hline one separator line). Does python have
lists and symbols? The latter probably not...
This could be your strategy:
1. build and return a string in (named) python src-block that contains
a 'table-list' (rows and hlines)
2. use that python-src-block as var for and elisp src-block:
#+header: :var lst=myPythonBlock
3. read-from-string that list in emacs-lisp
(read-from-string lst)
4. return the car from the result in source-block
#+name: myPythonBlock
#+begin_src emacs-lisp # should be python
(concat "((1 2 3) hline (4 5 6)"
" (a b c) hline (e f g))")
#+end_src
#+results: myPythonBlock
: ((1 2 3) hline (4 5 6) (a b c) hline (e f g))
#+header: :var lst=myPythonblock
#+begin_src emacs-lisp :results table
(car (read-from-string lst))
#+end_src
#+results:
| 1 | 2 | 3 |
|---+---+---|
| 4 | 5 | 6 |
| a | b | c |
|---+---+---|
| e | f | g |
but maybe a python programmer can tell you how to do it directly from
python.
