*Xcode Project Entry 3* Times Tables Quiz - Part 3

OK,  back with the third entry for this app! Today - for the next half hour or so, I'm going to try to get  the 'model' and the 'controller' sides of things. This means a database of the times tables, then having everything connected and working. Realistically, I'm not going to get far beyond the model elements. So let's give it a go!

Start Time - 17:37

MODEL -







So for this, it's the database for times tables facts. I think that would be best in a class.


CONTROLLER -



There's a lot for this so let's come back to it!

Finished at 21:50 - didn't come back to it this evening 

So a frustrating but interesting session! I've tried various things, using classes for building the question/answer format for the times tables. Lots of different things that have ultimately failed. But a great way to play around with something! I WILL get to the solution, without help. It simply has to happen - here's what we have at the moment.

class TimeTablesDatabase {

    

    var number1 = Int.random(in: 1...12)

    var number2 = Int.random(in: 1...12)

    

}

class TimesTables {

    

    var item = [TimeTablesDatabase]()

    

    init() {

        

        var result = 0

        

        var questionString = ""

        

        let randomNumber = Int.random(in: 1...12)

        let randomNumber2 = Int.random(in: 1...12)

        

        func tablesGenerator() {

            

            for number in randomNumber...12 {

                

                result = number * randomNumber2

                

                questionString = "\(randomNumber) x \(randomNumber2)"

                

            }

        }

        

        item.append(TimeTablesDatabase(question: "\(randomNumber) x \(randomNumber2)", answer: result))

        

   

   

    

    }

    

    

}

class TimesTablesGenerator {

    

    var randomNumber1 = Int.random(in: 1...12)

    var randomNumber2 = Int.random(in: 1...12)

  

}

So lots of things that have come to nought at the moment. Basically, I need a way of generating random numbers between 1 and 12 (easy enough) but having that come up within either a function or object....yes it is a frustrating point to stop at for now and one of the least successful entries I've had but I have to stop to go to bed. There - done for today!

*Going to make this a split entry - will continue this evening (53 minutes so far).
