Apologies if this is in an FAQ somewhere, but I've been unable to find it...
As a complete newcomer to Django (and Python, for that matter), I'd like to present my users with an HTML table that contains columns a, b and c from my table in the database, and then do arithmetic on the Model columns before presenting the user with the result (e.g the user sees a, b+c --- or a, int(b/c)). I know that I can't do the arithmetic with template tags. I can very easily create an SQL database view to do this, and then create a corresponding Django model. Is there a way I can do this in directly Django using a Django view or model? E.g. by presenting a custom column to represent the results of arithmetic on one or more other model columns. I'd eventually like to be able to call some custom mathematical functions that are not (easily) available in by DB. Thanks in advance. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
