Re: extract a region from a table and export it

[John Kitchin <jkitchin@andrew.cmu.edu>]

the problem seems to be that c0 and c2 are set to nil for some reason. I
doubt dash has anything to do with it. Try these:

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :var c0=tab2[,0] :var c2=tab2[,2]
c0
#+END_SRC

#+RESULTS:
| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 |

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :var c0=tab2[,0] :var c2=tab2[,2]
c2
#+END_SRC

#+RESULTS:
| 3 | 4 | 6 | 7 |

Here is a non-dash solution that works for two lists.

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :var c0=tab2[,0] :var c2=tab2[,2]
(loop for a in c0 for b in c2 collect (list a b))
#+END_SRC

#+RESULTS:
| 1 | 3 |
| 2 | 4 |
| 3 | 6 |
| 4 | 7 |
