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. Defined by django.db.models.ForeignKey. You use it just like any other Field type: by including it as a class attribute of your model.

2. 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.

4. 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

5. what the field _______ determines: (1) The database column type (e.g. INTEGER - VARCHAR); (2) The widget to use in Django's admin interface - if you care to use it (e.g. <input type="text"> - <select>); (3) The minimal validation requirements - used

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

8. 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

12. Specifies the model that will be used to govern the many-to-many relationship. You can then put extra fields on the intermediate model. The intermediate model is associated with the ManyToManyField using this to point to the model that will act as an

14. 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.

15. 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.

17. Performs an SQL delete query on all rows in the QuerySet. This method is applied instantly. You cannot call this method on a QuerySet that has had a slice taken or can otherwise no longer be filtered.

21. In this case - an intermediate model can have multiple foreign keys to the source model. Here - two foreign keys to the same model are permitted - but they will be treated as the two (different) sides of the many-to-many relation.

22. 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

34. 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.
