3. Delete Row : Delete an entire table row using
|table-mode-delete-row-map|
Table Formulas:
Table Mode now has support for formulas like a spreadsheet. There
are 2 ways of defining formulas :
You can add formulas using |:TableAddFormula| or the mapping
|<Leader>tfa| defined by the option
|table-mode-add-formula-map| from within a table cell, which
will ask for input on the cmd-line with a 'f=' prompt. The
input formula will be appended to the formula line if one
exists or a new one will be created with the input formula
taking the current cell as the target cell. The formula line
is evaluated immidiately to reflect the results.
You can directly also add / manipulate formula expressions in
the formula line. The formula line is a commented line right
after the table, beginning with 'tmf:' (table mode formula).
eg) '# tmf: $3=$2*$1'. You can add multiple formulas on the
line separated with a ';' eg) '# tmf: $3=$2*$1;$4=$3/3.14'
You can evaluate the formula line using |:TableEvalFormulaLine| or the
mapping |<Leader>tfe| defined by the option |table-mode-expr-calc-map|
Formula Expressions :
Expressions are of the format '$target = formula'.
The target can be of 2 forms :
'$n': This matches the table column number 'n'. So the formula
would be evaluated for each cell in that column and the result
would be placed in it.
'$n,m': This matches the table cell n,m (row, column). So in
this case the formula would be evaluated and the result will
be placed in this cell.
The formula can be a simple mathematical expression involving cells
which are also defined by the same format as that of the target cell.
Apart from basic mathematical expressions, table mode also provides
special functions 'Sum' and 'Average'. Both these functions take a
range as input. A range can be of two forms :
'n,m': This represents cells in the current column from row
'n' through 'm'. If 'm' is negative it represents 'm' row
above the current row (of the target cell).
'r1,c1:r2,c2': This represents cells in the table from cell
r1,c1 through cell r2,c2 (row, column).
Examples :
$2 = $1 * $1
$2 = $1 / $1,3
$1,2 = $1,1 * $1,1
$5,1 = Sum(1:-1)
$5,3 = Sum(1,2:5,2)
