 3.5.9 Updating the table
 ------------------------
 
 Recalculation of a table is normally not automatic, but needs to be
 triggered by a command.  See Advanced features, for a way to
 make recalculation at least semi-automatic.
 
    In order to recalculate a line of a table or the entire table, use
 the following commands:
 
 ‘C-c *     (org-table-recalculate)’
      Recalculate the current row by first applying the stored column
      formulas from left to right, and all field/range formulas in the
      current row.
 ‘C-u C-c *’
 ‘C-u C-c C-c’
      Recompute the entire table, line by line.  Any lines before the
      first hline are left alone, assuming that these are part of the
      table header.
 ‘C-u C-u C-c *  or  C-u C-u C-c C-c     (org-table-iterate)’
      Iterate the table by recomputing it until no further changes occur.
      This may be necessary if some computed fields use the value of
      other fields that are computed later in the calculation sequence.
 ‘M-x org-table-recalculate-buffer-tables RET’
      Recompute all tables in the current buffer.
 ‘M-x org-table-iterate-buffer-tables RET’
      Iterate all tables in the current buffer, in order to converge
      table-to-table dependencies.
