    <pre><code>import datetime as DT import itertools start_date=DT.date(2008,5,5) def mkdate(datestring): return DT.datetime.strptime(datestring, "%Y-%m-%d").date() def fortnight(date): return (date-start_date).days //14 raw = ("2010-08-01", "2010-06-25", "2010-07-01", "2010-07-08") transactions=[(date,"Some data") for date in map(mkdate,raw)] transactions.sort(key=lambda (date,data):date) for key,grp in itertools.groupby(transactions,key=lambda (date,data):fortnight(date)): print(key,list(grp)) </code></pre> <p>yields</p> <pre><code># (55, [(datetime.date(2010, 6, 25), 'Some data')]) # (56, [(datetime.date(2010, 7, 1), 'Some data'), (datetime.date(2010, 7, 8), 'Some data')]) # (58, [(datetime.date(2010, 8, 1), 'Some data')]) </code></pre> <p>Note that 2010-6-25 is in the 55th fortnight from 2008-5-5, while 2010-7-1 is in the 56th. If you want them grouped together, simply change <code>start_date</code> (to something like 2008-5-16).</p> <p>PS. The key tool used above is <code>itertools.groupby</code>, which is explained in detail <a href="http://docs.python.org/library/itertools.html#itertools.groupby" rel="noreferrer">here</a>.</p> <p>Edit: The <code>lambda</code>s are simply a way to make <a href="http://docs.python.org/reference/expressions.html#lambda" rel="noreferrer">"anonymous" functions</a>. (They are anonymous in the sense that they are not given names like functions defined by <code>def</code>). Anywhere you see a lambda, it is also possible to use a <code>def</code> to create an equivalent function. For example, you could do this:</p> <pre><code>import operator transactions.sort(key=operator.itemgetter(0)) def transaction_fortnight(transaction): date,data=transaction return fortnight(date) for key,grp in itertools.groupby(transactions,key=transaction_fortnight): print(key,list(grp)) </code></pre>

    1. CO`//14` is the same as `/14` in Python2, but is necessary in Python3 to get integer division (since `/14` gives floating-point division in Python3). By using `//14` you future-proof your code a little bit. See http://docs.python.org/library/stdtypes.html#numeric-types-int-float-long-complex

    2. CO// is used as integer division but actually it is division by numbers with result automatically rounded down to nearest integer. When used with floats the result stays float.

    3. COI'm not sure if I understand how the `lambda` works here. As I understand about `lambdas`, they're particularly useful for making them work over `iterable`s. Do `sort()` and `groupby()` perform some iteration operations on their `key`s?

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.
