Hi

I use #+NAME to define some parameters for my analysis, which works
quite nice for tables. but I would now like to use the same apprioach
for values, e.g. a single number, but I don't manage. Is this possible?
For illustration a short example:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
*** Species names and iespece codes
#+NAME: SPECIES
|         | fullName        | shortName | iespece | IFNName         | color |
|---------+-----------------+-----------+---------+-----------------+-------|
| fagus   | Fagus sylvatica | fagus     |       4 | fagus_sylvatica | red   |
| quercus | Quercus robur   | quercus   |       3 | quercus_robur   | green |

*** Random Number Definition
Defines random number generator kind, normal.kind and seed (see set.seed help in R for details)
#+NAME: RNGSEED 
13
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

SPECIES works, but how do I get RNGSEED to be 13?

Thanks,

Rainer

  Perhaps you could wrap it in a source code block?
  
  #+name: rngseed
  #+begin_src R
  13
  #+end_src
  
  #+results: rngseed
  : 13
  
  #+header: :var x=rngseed()
  #+begin_src R
  x + 1
  #+end_src
  
  #+results:
  : 14
  
  hth,
  Tom

    Thanks - yes, I could do that, but then it is not equivalent to a table,
    as I have to use VARIABLEVALUE() and for a table VARIABLETABLE. I
    actually wanted to get rid of this inconsistencies.
    
    I could obviously define an R source code block to return the table
    defined before in org, but this is not nice at all...
    
    Cheers,
    
    Rainer

      Does :results table help?

  You can use a verbatim block:
  
  ,----
  | #+name: xyz
  | : hi
  | 
  | #+begin_src emacs-lisp :var abc=xyz
  | (concat "*" abc "*")
  | #+end_src
  | 
  | #+RESULTS:
  | : *hi*
  `----

    Is that similar to (setq xyz "hi")?

    Perfect - this is exactly what I was looking for.

      If I'm not mistaken, I see two solutions for you:
      
          #+name: RNGSEED
          : 13
      
      or
      
          #+PROPERTY: var RNGSEED=13
      
      Best regards,
        Seb
