    <p>I thought the process of Python mastery went something like:</p> <ol> <li>Discover <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_comprehension#Python" rel="noreferrer">list comprehensions</a></li> <li>Discover <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_syntax_and_semantics#Generators" rel="noreferrer">generators</a></li> <li>Incorporate <a href="http://docs.python.org/library/functions.html" rel="noreferrer">map, reduce, filter, iter, range, xrange</a> often into your code</li> <li>Discover <a href="http://wiki.python.org/moin/PythonDecorators" rel="noreferrer">Decorators</a></li> <li>Write recursive functions, a lot</li> <li>Discover <a href="http://docs.python.org/library/itertools.html" rel="noreferrer">itertools</a> and <a href="http://docs.python.org/library/functools.html" rel="noreferrer">functools</a></li> <li>Read <a href="http://rads.stackoverflow.com/amzn/click/0596514980" rel="noreferrer">Real World Haskell</a> (<a href="http://book.realworldhaskell.org/read/" rel="noreferrer">read free online</a>)</li> <li>Rewrite all your old Python code with tons of higher order functions, recursion, and whatnot.</li> <li>Annoy your cubicle mates every time they present you with a Python class. Claim it could be "better" implemented as a dictionary plus some functions. Embrace functional programming.</li> <li>Rediscover the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strategy_pattern#Python" rel="noreferrer">Strategy</a> pattern and then <a href="http://rads.stackoverflow.com/amzn/click/0596007124" rel="noreferrer">all those things</a> from imperative code you tried so hard to forget after Haskell.</li> <li>Find a balance.</li> </ol>

    1. CO@wheaties Super nice list, love it! You seem to have a bias towards functional programing and away from object oriented... is there a particular reason? Has the Haskell experience rerouted you towards this approach?

    2. COYes and no. I find I write better and more concise code the closer I get to functional programming. That said, there are plenty of places where things are expressed more clearly in an imperative manner. There's a reason Real World Haskell is sold out at Python conventions, it makes you a better programmer. My advice, explore as many facets of Python as you can, then try a functional language.

    3. CO@wheaties gets the reply since it is both the closer to the format asked for and very inspiring. Thanks for taking your time to reply!

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
