Re: Building a calculator

Basically what you need is to store current selections/values in the session https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.0/topics/http/sessions/

Then access the session in the view and redirect accordingly.

Hello, 

I am new to Django and trying to learn using the framework as best as i can.

I am trying to build an application that can calculate thickness for a vessel under two cases: internal or external pressure. 

I am really stuck trying to answer the following (Please Help):

1) How can i redirect the user to one of the two calculation pages (where they will need to enter values in a field and see the result on the same page) based on their choice from ModelChoiceField?

2) How to do the calculations based on the equations i have and the iterations they require ( i know i should write them in the views but not sure how exactly)?

Please, if there is any other problem or you require further details on what i am trying to achieve, do tell me.

Thanks a lot!
