Subject: orgtables should taking into account empty cells when adding
Date: Mon, 13 Jun 2022 15:17:44 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87tu8oem87.fsf@mat.ucm.es> (raw)
Hi
Consider please
#+begin_src emacs-lisp :results silent :exports none
| Name | Theory | Matlab | Exercises | Result |
|-------+--------+--------+-----------+--------|
| User1 | 5 | 2 | 1 | 8 |
| User2 | | 2 | 1 | NP |
| User3 | 4 | 1 | | NP |
,#+TBLFM: $5=if(typeof(vsum($2..$4)) == 12 , string("NP"),vsum($2..$4)); E f-1
#+end_src
Each cell in a row that is empty results in the string NP, so far so good.
Now I want to achieve the same but only if cells in the second column are empty. So I thought
#+begin_src emacs-lisp :results silent :exports none
| Name | Theory | Matlab | Exercises | Result |
|-------+--------+--------+----------+-------|
| User1 | 5 | 2 | 1 | 8 |
| User2 | | 2 | 1 | NP |
| User3 | 4 | 1 | 0 | 5 |
#+TBLFM: $5=if("$2" == "nan", string("NP"),vsum($2..$4)); E f-1
#+end_src
That looks ok, however when say a cell in the third column is empty, the problem starts
because it results in
#+begin_src emacs-lisp :results silent :exports none
| Name | Theory | Matlab | Exercises | Result |
|-------+--------+--------+-----------+--------|
| User1 | 5 | 2 | 1 | 8 |
| User2 | | 2 | 1 | NP |
| User3 | 4 | 1 | | nan |
,#+TBLFM: $5=if("$2" == "nan", string("NP"),vsum($2..$4)); E f-1
#+end_src
Any idea how to solve this problem (I don't know how to have several ifs in such expression)
regards
Uwe Brauer
