Interesting, and thanks for taking a look. I don't think I specified sufficiently that I'm actually aiming for latex/pdf output and therefore want the org table. I can just add my own header row and get booktabs formatting free upon export. If I keep with :results output, the color options trick does remove a bunch of garbage from the output... but :results value still yields: #+RESULTS: | 1 | 0.318309886183791 | | 2 | 0.636619772367581 | | 3 | 0.954929658551372 | | 4 | 1.27323954473516 | | 5 | 1.59154943091895 | I was hoping there was a way to either (a) have org post-format or (b) take the results as printed. I'm not sure on the exact mechanism used which creates the mismatched output in the session vs. the table. I get that behind the scenes I still have long, irrational numbers here... it's just that if org can print them with x decimal places, is there some way to get Org to intercept *those* values?
