I would like (without using a gem) to create a level and experience point system for my users.
When creating his account, he starts level 0 with 0 experience points. To reach level 1 he will need 10 additional points, for a total of 10 points. For level 3 he will need 30 additional points, for a total of 60 experience points. Each additional level requires 10 more experience points. (see example below).
Level | Total XP | XP for next level|----------------------------------------|0 | 0 | 10 |1 | 10 | 20 | 2 | 30 | 30 |3 | 60 | 40 |4 | 100 | 50 |5 | 150 | 60 |etc...I would like an xp column in my user table that would represent the total experience of a user.
In my view I would like to display its level. But what is the formula for calculating this?
Let's imagine that my user has 157 experience points in total. Which corresponds to a level 5. How to calculate a level only via the total experience points and how to calculate this regardless of its total experience point whether it is 38 like 369 or 4393.
