.
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. This query finds all entries with an id greater than 4.
Entry.objects.filter(id__gt=4)
reverse()
choices tuple
iregex
2. Returns the most recent object in the table - by date - using the field_name provided as the date field.
Entry.objects.all().update(n_pingbacks=F('n_pingbacks') + 1)
intermediate models
regex
latest(field_name=None)
3. These are specified as keyword arguments to the QuerySet methods filter() - exclude() and get(). These take the form field__lookuptype=value .

4. Manager method used to retrieve every object in a model.

5. This object allows you to compare the value of a model field with another field on the same model. Django supports the use of addition - subtraction - multiplication - division and modulo arithmetic with these objects - both with constants and with o

6. Negation operator for Q objects.

Model metadata
7. This style of inheritanc is useful when you're subclassing an existing model (perhaps something from another application entirely) and want each model to have its own database table. Here - each model in the hierarchy is a model all by itself.

Entry.objects.filter(id__in=[1 - 3 - 4])
8. Lookup type that returns results greater than a given value.

9. A Q object that encapsulates queries for entries with a question value that starts with 'What' in a case-insensitive fashion.

16. 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.
filter chaining

Entry.objects.filter(pub_date__range=(start_date - end_date))

17. Returns a new QuerySet that uses SELECT DISTINCT in its SQL query. This eliminates duplicate rows from the query results.
distinct()
iregex

Custom model methods
18. 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()

19. A Manager method that returns a new QuerySet containing objects that match the given lookup parameters.

25. 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
