Description
At the point where we are asked to add the unicode method, the tutorial seems to be taking a shortcut by saying :
*
Wait a minute. <Poll: Poll object> is, utterly, an unhelpful representation of this object. Let’s fix that by editing the polls model (in the polls/models.py file) and adding a unicode() method to both Poll and Choice:
class Poll(models.Model):
# ...
def unicode(self):
return self.question
class Choice(models.Model):
# ...
def unicode(self):
return self.choice_text
*
This was very confusing to me, and though i managed to put bits of code together and make this work, I have no idea whether or not i did it right.
Could you perhaps improve this part of the tutorial by being more comprehensive ?
