Match each statement with the correct term.
Don't refresh. All questions and answers are randomly picked and ordered every time you load a test.
This is a study tool. The 3 wrong answers for each question are randomly chosen from answers to other questions. So, you might find at times the answers obvious, but you will see it re-enforces your understanding as you take the test each time.
1. Returns an integer representing the number of objects in the database matching the QuerySet. This never raises exceptions.
exists()
regex
isnull
count()
2. Lookup type for date/datetime fields that finds a 'day of the week' match.
reverse name
week_day
iendswith
reverse()
3. A Q object that asks for entries with a question value that start with 'Who' or do not have a publication date of 2005.

5. These methods are intended to do "table-wide" things.
Manager methods
Entry.objects.filter(pub_date__year=2005).delete()
get_absolute_url()
Model metadata
6. By default - results returned by a QuerySet are ordered by the ordering tuple given by the ordering option in the model's Meta. You can override this on a per-QuerySet basis by using the this method.

7. Can be used to remove all many-to-many relationships for an instance

8. The value given in the absence of a specified value for the field. This can be a value or a callable object. If callable it will be called every time a new object is created.

9. Fields are specified by these

Q()
10. This object encapsulates a collection of keyword arguments - with the keys being field lookup types. These objects can be combined using the & and | operators - as well as negated with the ~ operator.
Q()
count()
Entry.objects.all().update(n_pingbacks=F('n_pingbacks') + 1)

11. Conjuntion operator for Q objects.

12. Takes the ouput of one filter and uses it as input for another filter. This works because a refinement of a QuerySet is itself a QuerySet.

in_bulk(id_list)

Entry.objects.all().update(n_pingbacks=F('n_pingbacks') + 1)
18. A manager method which returns a single object. If there are no results that match the query - this method will raise a DoesNotExist exception. If more than one item matches this query - the method will raise MultipleObjectsReturned.
primary_key
get(**kwargs)
iexact
reverse()
19. Evaluates the QuerySet (by performing the query) and returns an iterator over the results. A QuerySet typically caches its results internally so that repeated evaluations do not result in additional queries; this method will instead read results dire

20. Evaluation happens upon use the "step" parameter of slice syntax - the first time you iterate over it - when pickling or caching results - upon calling repr() - upon calling len() - upon calling list() - upon calling bool()

21. Defines a many-to-one relationship. ou use it just like any other Field type: by including it as a class attribute of your model.

22. Lookup type that yields an "exact" match. If you don't provide a lookup type -- that is - if your keyword argument doesn't contain a double underscore -- the lookup type is assumed to be of this sort.

24. This method is for controlling which database the QuerySet will be evaluated against if you are using more than one database. The only argument this method takes is the alias of a database - as defined in DATABASES.
add()

25. Returns a DateQuerySet -- a QuerySet that evaluates to a list of datetime.datetime objects representing all available dates of a particular kind within the contents of the QuerySet.

26. If you are using this attribute on a ForeignKey or ManyToManyField - you must always specify a unique reverse name for the field.

28. In some complex data-modeling situations - your models might contain a lot of fields - some of which could contain a lot of data (for example - text fields) - or require expensive processing to convert them to Python objects. If you are using the res

42. An iterable (e.g. - a list or tuple) of 2-tuples to use as options for this field. If this is given - Django's admin will use a select box instead of the standard text field and will limit options to those given.

43. Returns True if the QuerySet contains any results - and False if not. This tries to perform the query in the simplest and fastest way possible - but it does execute nearly the same query. This means that calling this method on a queryset is faster th

44. Sometimes - the Django query syntax by itself can't easily express a complex WHERE clause. For these edge cases - Django provides this QuerySet modifier -- a hook for injecting specific clauses into the SQL generated by a QuerySet.

45. Accomplish this by using the field name of related fields across models - separated by double underscores - until you get to the field you want. For example - to get all Entry objects with a Blog whose name is 'Beatles Blog': Entry.objects.filter(blo

48. This model type is useful if you only want to modify the Python-level behavior of a model - without changing the models fields in any way. This creates a stand-in for the original model. You can create - delete and update instances of this new model
