You'll probably need jQuery. Bear in mind "size" is not absolute as it will 
depend on font family and font height.

Sounds good. Thanks for the advice. Now if I could only figure out how to 
get forms to expand and contract to match the size of the quote...

Thanks.

Re: Newbie question - data structure for game

I am also quite new to django, but I will go with something like this;

class Quote(models.Model):
quote= models.CharField(max_length=100)

class EncryptedQuote(models.Model)
quote = models.ForeignKey(Quote, on_delete=models.CASCADE)
encrypted_quote = models.CharField(max_length=100)


So, you can have multiple encryptions of any quote.

Python. I'd like to put it on a web page with Django. However, I'm not sure
of the best way to structure the data. The original quote and the encrypted
quote need to have a one-to-one relationship at the letter level. So it
could be two strings on the same row (same id)

That is the simplest, and I see no need for anything more complex.

or a set of tuples, a dictionary, or ???

What do you mean?

and models.py?

class Quote:
plain= Models.CharField()
crypt = Models.CharField()

Newbie question - data structure for game

2016-10-28 Thread Ken Albright
I'm just learning Python and Django so please be gentle...

I've written a quote decryption game (like you see in the newspaper) in 
Python. I'd like to put it on a web page with Django. However, I'm not sure 
of the best way to structure the data. The original quote and the encrypted 
quote need to have a one-to-one relationship at the letter level. So it 
could be two strings on the same row (same id) or a set of tuples, a 
dictionary, or ???

How to set up the database and models.py?

Thanks
