So, embedded calc processes expressions in any buffer, including org
mode, which might look like this:
x := 3
y := 5
z := 3 x - y => 4
where, in this case, the value of z has been determined by calc and the
answer given after the => in the line. The beauty of embedded calc is
you can change the value of x and the subsequent expressions will be
updated automatically (well, with C-x * u).
I would then love to be able to have a table that would allow me to
include the value of any variable, e.g. z above, something like
| var | value |
|-----+-------|
| x | 3 |
| z | 4 |
where the values in the second column are obtained by querying Calc.
