How do I include table headings in Excel data?












1















I am trying to generate a table with Manipulate and export the results into an MS Excel file.



Fortunately, after a lot of troubles, I was able to get the file export right but the headings were not included in the Excel file. I would be quite grateful for you guys to point to me where I am getting it wrong. Please see my code below:



Manipulate[

  nino = 

    TableForm[Table[(a*i)^2 - j^3, {i, 5}, {j, 6}], 

      TableHeadings -> {None, {n, n^2, n^3, k, g, t}}], 

  Button["Export", Export["ndata" <> ToString[a] <> ".xls", nino]], 

  {nino, ControlType -> None}, 

  {a, 0, 2}]





manipulate export table

  • TableForm is only a display form. Instead of using it just export your list with table headings attached, i.e.: Export[..., Prepend[Table[(a*i)^2 - j^3, {i, 5}, {j, 6}], {n, n^2, n^3, k, g, t} ]]. Also what's with the Manipulate here? It doesn't seem to do much of anything that couldn't be better done programmatically.

Exporting to Excel means that will have forego the use of the TableHeadings option of TableForm. You can do it like this.



dir = SetDirectory[FileNameJoin[{$HomeDirectory, "Desktop"}]]



Manipulate[Column[

  {nino =

     Join[{{n, n^2, n^3, k, g, t}}, Table[(a*i)^2 - j^3, {i, 5}, {j, 6}]];

   TableForm[nino],

   Button["Export",

     Export[FileNameJoin[{dir, "ndata" <> ToString[a] <> ".xls"}], nino],

     ImageSize -> Automatic,

     Method -> "Queued"]}],

  {nino, ControlType -> None},

  {a, 0, 2, .1, Appearance -> "Labeled"}]



SetDirectory

Then clicking on the export button will produce an .xls file that looks like this:



BTW: Having negative numbers under a column headed $n^2$ is strange

Apolo y la Nueve Musas En la mitología griega, las musas (en griego antiguo μοῦσαι « mousai» ) son, según los escritores más antiguos, las divinidades inspiradoras de las Artes: cada una de ellas está relacionada con ramas artísticas y del conocimiento. Son hijas de Zeus y de Mnemósine, compañeras del séquito de Apolo, dios olímpico de la música y patrón de las bellas artes, quien tuvo romances con cada una de ellas, dejando descendientes. Bajaban a la tierra a susurrar ideas e inspirar a aquellos mortales que las invocaran. En la época más arcaica eran las ninfas inspiradoras de las fuentes, en las cuales eran adoradas. Finalmente, alrededor de los siglos VIII-VII a. C. [ 1 ] ​ prevaleció en todo el territorio de la Hélade la adoración de las nueve Musas, que son Calíope, Clío, Erato, Euterpe, Melpómene, Polimnia, Talía, Terpsícore y Urania.
