The main problem is that Django extracts the array from the post matrix as a Python list, rather than as a NumPy array. This can lead to problems if you need to do any sort of mathematical operations on the array, because NumPy arrays are much more efficient for that kind of work.
I have a matrix in my HTML page that I am posting to my Django view. The matrix is a list of lists, and I want to extract the individual lists from the posted data. How can I do this?
Here is what I have so far:
def myview(request):
if request.method == 'POST': # If the form has been submitted...
form = MyForm(request.POST) # A form bound to the POST data
if form.is_valid(): # All validation rules pass
# Process the data in form.cleaned_data
return HttpResponseRedirect('/thanks/') # Redirect after POST
else:
form = MyForm() # An unbound form
return render(request, 'mytemplate.html', {'form':form})
In mytemplate.html
, I have a matrix of checkboxes that looks like this:
<table><tr><td>1,1 <input type="checkbox" name="matrix[0][0]" value="1" /> </td> <td> 1,2 <input type="checkbox" name="matrix[0][1]" value="1" />" </td>" <"td"="" 1,3="" "="" input="" type="checkbox" name=matrix[0][2] value=1 /"" ""="" td="" tr="" table="" xtml-space:"preserve"" xmlns:xtml-space="http://www." w3corg/xml/1998/namespace"" xmlns_w3corg="/xmlns/" xml:"lang=en-us"" lang=en-us"" http://www."" w3corg/1999xhtml"" xmlns_w3corg="/1999/" html:"xmlns=http://www."" w3corg/" lang=en-us""" class="container">2,1 &"nbsp;" 2,2 "nbsp;" 2," 3 "nbsp;" 3," 1 "nbsp;" 3," 2 "nbsp;" 3," 3 "nbsp;" 4," 1 "nbsp;" 4," 2 "nbsp;" 4," 3 "" nbsp ; "" 5 , "" 1 "" nbsp ; "" 5 , "" 2 "" nbsp ; "" 5 , """ 6 ," """ 7 ," """ 8 ," """ 9 ," """ 10 ," """ 11 ," """ 12 ," """ 13 ," """ 14 , "
