What is a Many-to-One Relationship? Imagine you're organizing a library. In this library, there are authors and books. Each book was written by one author, but an author can write many books. This scenario, where multiple records in one table are related to a single record in another table, exemplifies a many-to-one relationship. The "One" Side On the "one" side of the relationship, we have a unique entity that other entities relate to. In our library example, this is the Author. Authors exist independently with their unique identities. The "Many" Side Conversely, on the "many" side, we have entities that can relate back to the same single entity on the "one" side. Each book can point to its author, but a single author can have many books pointing back to them. Modeling Many-to-One in Django Django models these real-world relationships using, well, models! Models in Django are Python classes that define the structure of your databas
Join me as I learn more about computer programming. On this blog, I write about Python, Django, web development, and how to gather data from the internet (web scraping). Here, I share what I learn, give tips, and talk with other people who love tech. Let’s explore programming together.
