The mathematical comparison used in Django.96 templates.

Question

I want to compare simple math in a django template

like {% forloop.counter> 5%} {% endfor%}

How do I achieve this?

Answer 1

This is not possible because Django intentionally provides very limited syntax that does not include mathematical operators. You can do this by creating a custom template filter , but this is a bad idea - you would be better off pre-processing the data before passing it to so you don't need a math operator. This, of course, is what Django wants you to do.
