Develop Algorithm for Learning Flashcards

[jacob-macleod]

The algorithm should be similar to Anki, and allow users to be shown only the flashcards they need to learn The client should pass an API endpoint the card data like review date and review status, and the new review date and status should be returned.

In Anki, cards are classed as Learn, hard, medium, easy. Easy is rarely used, and I would argue "hard" is used even less. So I would say:

• If you swipe the card one way, you don't know it
• If you swipe the card the other way, you know it
• If you tap the card to flip it then press the "Easy" button or equivalent, the flashcard is classed as easy

@nathan-a-macleod This is pertinent to you for the UI design

[nathan-a-macleod]

Pertinent? That's a big word for you... Sure you know what it means?

[jacob-macleod]

I know way bigger words. Like database-view-renderer-engine. That's a pretty big word.
