Flash cards

Each individual flash card is of the type Flashcard

  1. type FlashCard struct {
  2.     Simplified string
  3.     English    string
  4.     Dictionary *dictionary.Dictionary
  5. }

At present we only store the simplified character and the English translation for that character. We also have a Dictionary which will contain only one entry for the entry we will have chosen somewhere.

A set of flash cards is defined by the type

  1. type FlashCards struct {
  2.     Name      string
  3.     CardOrder string
  4.     ShowHalf  string
  5.     Cards     []*FlashCard
  6. }

where the CardOrder will be "random" or "sequential" and the ShowHalf will be "RANDOM_HALF" or "ENGLISH_HALF" or "CHINESE_HALF" to determine which half of a new card is shown first.

The code for flash cards has nothing novel in it. We get data from the client browser and use JSON to create an object from the form data, and store the set of flashcards as a JSON string.
