Subject: How to exclude colum titles from calculations
Date: Thu, 09 Mar 2023 11:45:48 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <878rg6nqxv.fsf@mat.ucm.es> (raw)


Hi 

Please take this example: 

|-------+-----------+-------------+-----------+----------|
|       | Account 1 | 1/4 part of | Account 2 |      1/4 |
|-------+-----------+-------------+-----------+----------|
| Item1 |    224999 |             |    224999 |          |
| Item2 |    269403 |             |    269403 |          |
| Item3 |           |             |           |          |
| Item4 |           |             |           |          |
| Item5 |     10300 |     2575.00 |           |          |
#+TBLFM: $3=if(typeof(0.25*$2) == 12, string(""),0.25*$2); E f-2::$5=if(typeof(0.25*$4) == 12, string(""),0.25*$4); E f-2

C-c C-c 

Leads to the expected 


|-------+-----------+-------------+-----------+----------|
|       | Account 1 | 1/4 part of | Account 2 |      1/4 |
|-------+-----------+-------------+-----------+----------|
| Item1 |    224999 |    56249.75 |    224999 | 56249.75 |
| Item2 |    269403 |    67350.75 |    269403 | 67350.75 |
| Item3 |           |             |           |          |
| Item4 |           |             |           |          |
| Item5 |     10300 |     2575.00 |           |          |
#+TBLFM: $3=if(typeof(0.25*$2) == 12, string(""),0.25*$2); E f-2::$5=if(typeof(0.25*$4) == 12, string(""),0.25*$4); E f-2


However when I have one line on top of the table 


|       |      What |             | This      |     |
|-------+-----------+-------------+-----------+-----|
|       | Account 1 | 1/4 part of | Account 2 | 1/4 |
|-------+-----------+-------------+-----------+-----|
| Item1 |    224999 |             |    224999 |     |
| Item2 |    269403 |             |    269403 |     |
| Item3 |           |             |           |     |
| Item4 |           |             |           |     |
| Item5 |     10300 |     2575.00 |           |     |
#+TBLFM: $3=if(typeof(0.25*$2) == 12, string(""),0.25*$2); E f-2::$5=if(typeof(0.25*$4) == 12, string(""),0.25*$4); E f-2

Then C-u C-u C-c C-c leads to 


|       |      What |                              |      This |                              |
|-------+-----------+------------------------------+-----------+------------------------------|
|       | Account 1 | mul = 12 ?  : 0.25 Account 1 | Account 2 | mul = 12 ?  : 0.25 Account 2 |
|-------+-----------+------------------------------+-----------+------------------------------|
| Item1 |    224999 |                     56249.75 |    224999 |                     56249.75 |
| Item2 |    269403 |                     67350.75 |    269403 |                     67350.75 |
| Item3 |           |                              |           |                              |
| Item4 |           |                              |           |                              |
| Item5 |     10300 |                      2575.00 |           |                              |
#+TBLFM: $3=if(typeof(0.25*$2) == 12, string(""),0.25*$2); E f-2::$5=if(typeof(0.25*$4) == 12, string(""),0.25*$4); E f-2

Which is terrible.

Any idea how to avoid this?

Thanks and regards

Uwe Brauer
