What about:

#+begin_src emacs-lisp :var t1=nut :var t2=nut2 :colnames yes
(append t1 t2)
#+end_src

#+RESULTS:
| type     | Fiber | Sugar | Protein | Carb |

| eggplant |   2.5 |   3.2 |     0.8 |  8.6 |
| tomatoe  |   0.6 |   2.1 |     0.8 |  3.4 |
| onion    |   1.3 |   4.4 |     1.3 |  9.0 |
| egg      |     0 |  18.3 |    31.9 | 18.3 |
| rice     |   0.2 |     0 |     1.5 | 16.0 |
| bread    |   0.7 |   0.7 |     3.3 | 16.0 |
| orange   |   3.1 |  11.9 |     1.3 | 17.6 |
| banana   |   2.1 |   9.9 |     0.9 | 18.5 |
| tofu     |   0.7 |   0.5 |     6.6 |  1.4 |
| nut      |   2.6 |   1.3 |     4.9 |  7.2 |
| corn     |   4.7 |   1.8 |     2.8 | 21.3 |

Of course, this works because both tables have headers, which can be
handled by the ":colnames yes" header-argument. If both are headerless,
"colnames: no" would do the trick.

Handling the case where one has headers and the other not, or when
there are hlines in the table is still a conudrum for me: I haven't
(yet) been able to find the documentation on how these things are
stored...

Thanks very much, this was precisely what I was looking for. The R based
solution works fine but I prefer one which is based on elisp.

Hi

I was googling this a bit, I found more complicated scenarios, but not
how to join one or more tables.

For example 
#+begin_src 

#+tblname: nut
| type     | Fiber | Sugar | Protein | Carb |
|----------+-------+-------+---------+------|
| eggplant |   2.5 |   3.2 |     0.8 |  8.6 |
| tomatoe  |   0.6 |   2.1 |     0.8 |  3.4 |
| onion    |   1.3 |   4.4 |     1.3 |  9.0 |
| egg      |     0 |  18.3 |    31.9 | 18.3 |


#+tblname: nut2
| type     | Fiber | Sugar | Protein | Carb |
|----------+-------+-------+---------+------|
| rice     |   0.2 |     0 |     1.5 | 16.0 |
| bread    |   0.7 |   0.7 |     3.3 | 16.0 |
| orange   |   3.1 |  11.9 |     1.3 | 17.6 |
| banana   |   2.1 |   9.9 |     0.9 | 18.5 |
| tofu     |   0.7 |   0.5 |     6.6 |  1.4 |
| nut      |   2.6 |   1.3 |     4.9 |  7.2 |
| corn     |   4.7 |   1.8 |     2.8 | 21.3 |
#+end_src


I want to generate a new table total-nuts, which is just a combination
of the two tables, nuts and nuts2

   > Uwe Brauer 

I found a solution posted in 

https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2009-09/msg00919.html

However 

** Elisp
#+tblname: tab1
 | 1 | 2 | 3 |
 | 7 | 8 | 9 |
 
#+tblname: tab2
 |  4 |  5 |  6 |
 | 10 | 11 | 12 |
 
 Here's a solution in emacs lisp:
 
 #+srcname: column-bind-elisp(a=tab1, b=tab2)
 #+begin_src emacs-lisp 
 (mapcar* 'append a b)
 #+end_src


column-bind-elisp

Does not exist any more.

Any ideas?

Re: join two or more tables

[Jude DaShiell]

In that situation I made 3 files header; t1, and t2.  The header file
had the two lines at the top of both tables.  The t1 and t2 files had
only record lines in them without the footer.  Then cat header t1 t2
>newtable.  Once done open newtable and be sure it works in emacs and
append that footer line to it and perhaps put it into a #Begin-src
#End-src block.

Thanks I knew about it, but it seems very sophisticated and column, not
row based.

Meanwhile I found the following, R-based, solution 

* Using R to combine columns, important the first row must coincide!
 #+tblname: TC
 | a | b | c |
 |---+---+---|
 | 1 | 2 | 3 |
 | 7 | 8 | 9 |
 
 #+tblname: TD
 |  a |  b |  c |
 |----+----+----|
 |  4 |  5 |  6 |
 | 10 | 11 | 12 |

 #+begin_src R :colnames t :var t1=TC t2=TD
 rbind(t1, t2)
 #+end_src

Well, if simple-minded suits you (i.e. the columns are known to have the
same order):

Tables in Org are lists with rows as their elements, and a row is either
a symbol or a list of column elements.  So just concatenating the two
lists does (almost) the right thing.  If you know the row has headers,
you need to skip until the first real data row in the second table
(i.e. skip the first row, the first header and then resume the concat).

Your other option is just grabbing the text of both tables, emit it as a
single entity (again you may want to remove the header on the second
table) and then call org-align-table on it.

Hm, thanks but could you post an example (the one I finally used is
based on R and goes as follows


 #+tblname: TC
 | a | b | c |
 |---+---+---|
 | 1 | 2 | 3 |
 | 7 | 8 | 9 |
 
 #+tblname: TD
 |  a |  b |  c |

 #+begin_src R :colnames t :var t1=TC t2=TD
 rbind(t1, t2)
 #+end_src

 #+RESULTS:

There's a whole tutorial on table manipulation on Worg:
https://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/babel/examples/lob-table-operations.html

It's a bit old so some of the functions may be named differently now,
but the principles should still apply.
