Further on this, any suggestions on how to pass a vector variable to
calc using babel?  I tried

#+begin-src org
  #+begin_src calc :var y=[1 2 3]
3 y
  #+end_src
#+end_src

but get an error that says

: Bad format in variable contents: Expected a number

I've tried putting the vector in quotes but that doesn't help either.
Is this maybe not possible?

Thanks,
eric
