No really, I want a maximum of ten random records from the database
(Django 1.4, Postgres 9.1).
Looking at the docs this seems to be what I want ...
Items.objects.filter(name__icontains=term).order_by('?')[:10]
Is there a better way?
Would .order_by() be quicker if I wasn't too concerned about true
randomness?
Do I need try: except: pass to silence errors if there aren't any results?
Thanks
Mike
