Yes. `table:get` returns an object of `WildcardType` [source <https://github.com/NetLogo/Table-Extension/blob/master/src/TableExtension.java#L194>], so you should be able to take a table as an argument by specifying the argument to be of `WildcardType`. The second problem is that Argument doesn't have a getter for > tables (again, of course), but it looks like I can just use Argument.get(), > so that's not a problem. > Right, you can just do `Argument.get` and then cast it to the type you're expecting.
