Cangjians

The CangjieChar class

This is the basic currency unit in pycangjie. CangjieChar’s are what the methods return when you want to find what character(s) corresponds to a certain Cangjie code.

The CangjieChar simply has 3 attributes:

• chchar is an str containing the character that the user actually wants
• code is an str containing the Cangjie code for that character
• frequency is an int` representing a useful measure to order the characters when presenting them to the user. The higher it is, the more frequent that character is.

For example, in Cangjie, the character (chchar) “木” has the code “d”.

Also, a character with a frequency of 1000 should be presented before a character with a frequency of 500.

CangjieChar’s are really something that your application will consume, not something you will create and manage.

Nevertheless, if you do want to create one, the CangjieChar constructor takes 3 arguments, which are the 3 attributes above, in the order we described them:

import cangjie

c = cangjie.CangjieChar("木", "d", 123)
