Create and store Q&A flashcards that generate audio recordings so the flashcards can be read back to you. The idea comes from someone asking for a flashcard app they could use while driving.

Notecards.py:

• The main file to be used is Notecards. This initializes the notecard window, allows you to:
  • edit settings
  • create/edit/delete cards and decks
  • Run through a deck of cards
• The interface is built in tkinter, with data stored in a SQLite instance, and audio generated and played back by pydub.

Notecards_Setup.py:

• Should be run prior to running Notecards.py
• Ensures that all Python packages are installed
• Creates home C:\Notecards\ directory
• Creates database and tables, populates sample records

Notecards.sqlite

• SQLite database used to store setting information, flashcards and decks.
• See schema for more information

Audio Files:

• Stored in home directory
• .mp3 format
• filename of format {deck_id}_{card_id}_{question or answer}.mp3

• Shuffle
  • Boolean setting that either shuffles the deck or runs it in the stored order
  • Default 1 (On)
• Delay
  • Numeric setting that represents how long the deck should wait between reading question & answer, and before continuing to the next card
  • Default 3 (seconds)

• Cards will throw an error if you try to use an apostrophe in the text. This is just due to how the SQL is written. Change forthcoming.
