What's wrong with using tables as a data source for ipython blocks? #7

Closed ghost closed 6 years ago

The example says

Note that you probably should not use the tables as data sources to code blocks because the ipython notebook does not support that.

Sacha Chua demos it in R, so I tried doing it in ipython and it seemed to work great.

What do I need to worry about if I'm doing this? What relevant feature is missing from org or jupyter that I should follow?

It should work fine in orgmode. What won't work fine is if you export to a jupyter notebook. They have no concept of data from tables.

Oh I see, yes, that fails. Thanks.
