Hi Aditya, Thanks for pointing to your context-blog: one learns always some good stuff there!
I wanted to make an observation about the last example in that page, which does not typeset correctly as expected, and also it does not work well if one wanted to make a multiplication table instead of the addition table of your examples. I think the following modification might be necessary (here for the multiplication table): %%%%%%% \startplacetable \startluacode context.bTABLE() context.bTR() context.bTD() context("($\\times$)") context.eTD() for n = 1,6 do context.bTD() context(n) context.eTD() end context.eTR() for x = 1,6 do context.bTR() for y = 0,6 do context.bTD() if y == 0 then context(x) elseif y > 0 then context(x*y) end context.eTD() end context.eTR() end context.eTABLE() \stopluacode \stopplacetable %%%%%%% Thanks again, and best regards: OK > On 30 Sep 2018, at 21:15, Aditya Mahajan <adit...@umich.edu> wrote: > > On Sun, 30 Sep 2018, Fabrice Couvreur wrote: > >> Hi, >> Is it possible to fill columns A, B and C using a loop with lua ? >> Thank you. > > Here is a blog post summarizing a similar question from almost a decade ago: > > https://adityam.github.io/context-blog/post/tex-programming/ > > Aditya > ___________________________________________________________________________________ > If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the > Wiki! > > maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context > webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://context.aanhet.net > archive : https://bitbucket.org/phg/context-mirror/commits/ > wiki : http://contextgarden.net > ___________________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://context.aanhet.net archive : https://bitbucket.org/phg/context-mirror/commits/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________
