Concatenating results

Concatenating results

I have a list of N source blocks, of which each produces a table, and all
these tables have the same column count. What is the easiest way to now
make a single table which is the result of calling all these blocks and
concatenating the result?

Essentially, would be also the same as N CALL together but all append to
the same result instead of a result for each CALL.

Btw thanks, this Org stuff is all so mind blowing.

There are can be multiple ways to achieve what you want.

One way could be using noweb references:

#+name: block1
#+begin_src emacs-lisp :results table
'((1 2) (3 4))
#+end_src

#+name: block2
#+begin_src emacs-lisp :results table
'((5 6) (7 8))
#+end_src

 
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(append
'<<block1()>>
'<<block2()>>)
#+end_src

I get an error with this:
executing Emacs-Lisp code block...
progn: Symbol’s value as variable is void: >>

That's because noweb references are disabled by default (see
https://orgmode.org/manual/Noweb-Reference-Syntax.html#Noweb-Reference-Syntax)

With default Org settings you need

#+begin_src emacs-lisp :noweb yes
(append
'<<block1()>>
'<<block2()>>)
#+end_src
