A solution without having to write code-writing code is tangling to different files (MWE3.py and setup.py). See the example below. I read somewhere that Python has stong reflection features. It should be possible to write Python code that, given a string and a value, introduces a Python variable of that name and binds the value to it. If you find out how that works, the mangle block below can be changed so that the main block has e.g. setup.A.sum() instead of setup.tables["A"].sum(). Final disclaimer: There may and probably are other possibilies that I do not know or have not thought of. * Main Project #+NAME: main #+BEGIN_SRC python :tangle MWE3.py :noweb yes :results output import setup print(setup.tables["A"].sum()) print(setup.tables["B"].sum()) #+END_SRC * Data Tables #+NAME: table_42 | foo | |-----| | 42 | | 42 | #+NAME: table_100 | bar | |-----| | 100 | * Setup #+BEGIN_SRC python :tangle setup.py import numpy as np tables={} #+END_SRC #+NAME: mangle #+BEGIN_SRC python tables[name] = np.array(table).astype(np.float).flatten() #+END_SRC #+BEGIN_SRC python :tangle setup.py :noweb yes :var table=table_42 :var name="A" <<mangle>> #+END_SRC #+BEGIN_SRC python :tangle setup.py :noweb yes :var table=table_100 :var name="B" <<mangle>> #+END_SRC
