org-babel python output drawing and print text at the same time

Question

I like to use org-babel to write tiny python code and drawing with matplotlib. but I can only output drawing or text, I have to switch the org header from "file link" to "output" each time if I want to see print output.

How can I enable both then no need to swich header options?

Answer 1

I think you want the #+CALL macro. In this example, evaluate the second code block (emacs-lisp), it will first run the R block and then pass its value to the emacs-lisp block. I copied this from the manual, so you may want to read further there about it - chapter 14.

#+NAME: random
#+begin_src R :cache yes
  runif(1)
#+end_src

#+NAME: caller
#+begin_src emacs-lisp :var x=random
  x
#+end_src

#+RESULTS: caller
