I think you can write a function that returns a > b and then make it a getter method with python's property.
i would have given an example but typing code from my phone isn't very appealing.

I have a Django Model as follows: class myModel(models.Model): a = models.IntegerField() b = models.IntegerField() I want to add a models.BooleanField() named c to the myModel class. However the value of c is simply derived from a and b so I don't want it to be stored in the Database. I want to c to be True if a > b, otherwise False. I want c to reflect the correct/current value even when a and b get modifed. And I want to be able to access c using myModel.c just like I can access a and b. Is there any way to do this? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
