    javascript frameworks used
    Times asked 1
    Official solution

    SimpleVue React Angular UI frameworks. Vue course choice.

    What are JavaScript frameworks.

    JS browser ki language. const rebind nahi, let block. Arrow () => this lexical.

    Promise: pending/fulfill/reject. async/await usko seedha padhne jaisa. try/catch await pe. Yeh Celery nahi — Celery Python worker.

    fetch native AJAX. array.filter/map computed lists. Vue data reactive; plain JS DOM querySelector se manual.

    Project example: Vue.

    Project example: Vue.

  2. 2
    what is point to point messaging
    Times asked 1
    Official solution

    SimplePoint-to-point messaging: ek producer → ek queue → ek consumer. Celery task usually yahi. Pub/Sub = broadcast many subscribers.

  3. 3
    frontend validation or backend validation - which is more important
    Times asked 1
    Official solution

    SimpleValidation = input rules: required, email format, length, unique. Frontend UX, backend security — dono.

    Example

    if not email or '@' not in email:
        flash('Invalid email')
        return redirect(request.url)
    if User.query.filter_by(email=email).first():
        flash('Email taken')
  1. 1
    Csrf and xss
    Times asked 2
    Official solution

    SimpleCSRF: attacker tumhari logged-in browser se unwanted POST. CSRF token form mein proof hai request genuine hai.

    Viva tipFlask-WTF CSRF protect karta hai. Token bina POST reject.

  2. 2
    What is privacy and security
    Times asked 2
    Official solution

    SimplePrivacy personal data minimize. Security attacks rokna CIA. Overlap not same.

    GDPR vs firewall example.

    Browser + API ke beech extra darwaze: CORS origin allow, HTTPS encrypt transit, CSRF cookie-auto-send attack, XSS HTML inject, SQL injection raw query.

    MAD2 SPA: Vue :8080 Flask :5000 → Flask-CORS. JWT localStorage XSS se chori ho sakta — v-html user input pe avoid. Password Network tab localhost pe dikhega; prod HTTPS, response mein password echo nahi.

    401 unauthenticated, 403 unauthorized, 400 validation. Hash one-way — SHA decrypt nahi hota. Secret key .env, GitHub pe nahi.

    Project example: Don't return other users' emails to normal user API.

    libraries used in app
    Times asked 2
    Official solution

    SimpleStack bolo: Python, Flask, Jinja2, SQLAlchemy, SQLite, HTML/CSS/Bootstrap, maybe Chart.js.

  3. 3
    what is smtp
    Times asked 1
    Official solution

    SimpleSMTP = email bhejne ka protocol, jaise HTTP web ka.

    Ports: 587 STARTTLS, 465 SMTPS, 25 server-server. Dev: MailHog 1025.

    Flask-Mail wrap. Sync send slow — Celery task se bhejo.

    Fayda: universal. Nuksaan: spam, deliverability (SPF/DKIM), no guarantee like API.

    Example

    app.config['MAIL_SERVER'] = 'localhost'
    app.config['MAIL_PORT'] = 1025
    mail.send(Message('Hi', recipients=['a@b.com'], body='Hello'))

    Project example: MAIL_SERVER=localhost MAIL_PORT=1025. Production later SendGrid/SES.

    Viva tipFayda: universal. Nuksaan: deliverability, spam, sync send slow — isliye Celery + MailHog in dev.

  4. 4
    change background of a div to an image
    Times asked 1
    Official solution

    Simpleexaminer UI tweak maangta hai — CSS class ya inline, instantly dikhao.

    Button color: <button class='btn btn-success'> ya style='background:#22c55e;color:#fff'
    Navbar: navbar-dark bg-success / style='background:yellow' / fixed-bottom se neeche.
    Center: .wrap { display:flex; justify-content:center; align-items:center; min-height:100vh; }
    text-align:center heading ke liye. Bootstrap: d-flex justify-content-center, mx-auto, text-center.
    Hover: .btn:hover { opacity:0.8; transform:scale(1.02); }
    Half width: class='col-6' ya width:50%. Row→column: flex-direction:column / col-12 stack.
    Login card: card shadow p-4 mx-auto (max-width:400px).
    Table header green: th { background:green; color:white; } Bold column: td:nth-child(2){font-weight:bold}
    Box shadow: box-shadow: 4px 4px 12px rgba(0,0,0,.3);
    Background image: body { background: url('/static/bg.jpg') center/cover; }
    Reset button: <button type='reset'>Clear</button>
    Move button: ms-auto / position / flex order.
    Jinja dashboard heading: <h1>{{ user.name }}'s Dashboard</h1>

  5. 5
    what is orm
    Times asked 1
    Official solution

    SimpleORM = Object Relational Mapping. Database tables ko Python classes/objects se map karta hai, raw SQL kam likhni padti hai.

    Bina ORM: cursor.execute('SELECT * FROM user WHERE id=?', [5])
    ORM se: User.query.get(5) ya db.session.get(User, 5)

    Example model

    class User(db.Model):
        id = db.Column(db.Integer, primary_key=True)
        email = db.Column(db.String(120), unique=True)

    FaydePython mein soch sakte ho, SQL injection se protection (parameterized), relationships easy, DB switch thoda aasan.

    Nuksaancomplex queries slow/abstract, seekhne ki layer extra, kabhi raw SQL phir bhi chahiye.

    MAD1: SQLAlchemy (Flask-SQLAlchemy). Tables db.create_all() ya migrations se banti hain.

  6. 6

  7. 7
    vue
    Times asked 2
    Official solution

    SimpleVue = UI ka smart assistant. Data badlo, screen khud update. MAD1 Jinja har click pe naya HTML.

    Progressive frontend framework. Components, reactivity, directives.

    MAD2 SPA: ek index.html, Vue Router pages, Flask sirf JSON.

    Fayde: easy, SFC, docs. Vs React: templates HTML-like, course sikhata hai. Vs plain JS: baar-baar DOM mat chhedo.

    Example

    <!-- HelloWorld.vue -->
    <template>
      <h1>{{ msg }}</h1>
    </template>
    <script>
    export default { data() { return { msg: 'Hello' } } }
    </script>

    Project example: Navbar.vue + views (Login, Dashboard). data() / setup() reactive. fetch APIs.

    Viva tipFayde: easy, SFC, reactivity. Vs React: chhota learning curve. Vs plain JS: UI state auto-update.

  8. 8
    server sent event
    Times asked 3
    Official solution

    SimpleServer-Sent Events: server → browser one-way stream (text/event-stream). WebSocket full duplex hai; SSE simpler notifications ke liye.

    Example

    # client
    const es = new EventSource('/stream');
    es.onmessage = (e) => console.log(e.data);
  9. 9
    task queue and message queue
    Times asked 2
    Official solution

    SimpleMessage queue generic. Task queue (Celery) specifically 'yeh function chalao'.

    Redis list FIFO. Priority extra queues.

    Pehle 1-line definition, phir related MAD2 layer (Vue SFC / Flask route / models.py / tasks.py / Redis).

    4-line formula: input kahan se aaya, auth/validation kaunsa, DB ya cache ya Celery, kya return.

    Related mix mat karo — cache ≠ Celery, authentication ≠ authorization, v-if ≠ v-show, Beat ≠ Worker. Follow-up ke liye ek difference ready rakho.

    Project example: Celery is task queue on Redis broker.

  10. 10
    what is dos -
    Times asked 2
    Official solution

    SimpleDenial of Service flood/expensive queries se down. Rate limit, captcha, scale.

    Course: validation, indexes, cache. Not full WAF.

    Browser + API ke beech extra darwaze: CORS origin allow, HTTPS encrypt transit, CSRF cookie-auto-send attack, XSS HTML inject, SQL injection raw query.

    MAD2 SPA: Vue :8080 Flask :5000 → Flask-CORS. JWT localStorage XSS se chori ho sakta — v-html user input pe avoid. Password Network tab localhost pe dikhega; prod HTTPS, response mein password echo nahi.

    401 unauthenticated, 403 unauthorized, 400 validation. Hash one-way — SHA decrypt nahi hota. Secret key .env, GitHub pe nahi.

    Project example: Don't allow unbounded export without auth.

    plub/sub vs point to point
    Times asked 3
    Official solution

    SimpleUngli rakhe to 4-line formula — panic ki jagah structure.

    1) File ka role: model / Flask route / Vue SFC / celery task / config
    2) Input kahan: JSON, params, token, props, $route
    3) Kya kaam: query, cache, validation, .delay()
    4) Output: jsonify, this.items, email, redirect

    Unknown keyword: import, decorator, if, commit — har ka reason. Bluff mat.

    Suggested flow1) Kaunsi layer?
    2) Input?
    3) DB/cache/task?
    4) Response/UI?

    Project example: Booking POST: jwt, seats check, commit, 201, Vue list push.

    Viva tipUnknown keyword: import, decorator, if, commit — har ka reason. Panic mat.

  12. 12
    explain models
    Times asked 1
    Official solution

    Simplemodels.py = har table ki class: columns, PK/FK, relationships. Yeh Model layer hai.

    Suggested flow1) Classes list karo
    2) Har table ka kaam 1 line
    3) Relationships (1-M / M-M)
    4) Constraints (unique, nullable)

    Example

    class Lot(db.Model):
        id = db.Column(db.Integer, primary_key=True)
        name = db.Column(db.String(80), nullable=False)
        spots = db.relationship('Spot', backref='lot', lazy=True)

    if you are trying to enter a string data to int field, what error will be thrown
    Times asked 3
    Official solution

    SimpleInt column mein string daalne pe SQLAlchemy/DB type error ya Integrity/StatementError. Empty table pe bhi same validation fail — row count matter nahi.

    Example

    # SQLite may coerce sometimes; Postgres: invalid input syntax for integer
    Spot(status='free', lot_id='abc')  # lot_id int → error

    Data binding. V- model and v- bind.
    Times asked 2
    Official solution

    Simplemodels.py = har table ki class: columns, PK/FK, relationships. Yeh Model layer hai.

    Suggested flow1) Classes list karo
    2) Har table ka kaam 1 line
    3) Relationships (1-M / M-M)
    4) Constraints (unique, nullable)

    Example

        spots = db.relationship('Spot', backref='lot', lazy=True)
  4. 4
    Template inheritance.
    Times asked 2
    Official solution

    Simpleextends poora layout inherit karta hai, include chhota piece insert karta hai.

    extends: child page base.html ka structure use karti hai, blocks override karti hai. Ek hi parent.
    include: navbar.html / footer.html jahan chaho insert. Kai baar use ho sakta hai.

    base.html:

    {% block content %}{% endblock %}
    
    home.html:
    {% extends 'base.html' %}
    {% block content %}<h1>Home</h1>{% endblock %}
    
    {% include 'navbar.html' %}  → navbar har page pe

    Fayda: header/footer ek jagah, change once — saari pages update. MAD1 mein almost har project use karta hai.

  3. 3
    mutations and actions
    Times asked 2
    Official solution

    SimpleMutations sync diary entry. Actions async kaam phir diary.

    Direct state mutate action se Vuex 4 discouraged. Devtools time-travel mutations.

    Purpose of Actions: API, phir commit. Purpose of Mutations: state change one place.

    Pehle 1-line definition, phir related MAD2 layer (Vue SFC / Flask route / models.py / tasks.py / Redis).

    4-line formula: input kahan se aaya, auth/validation kaunsa, DB ya cache ya Celery, kya return.

    Related mix mat karo — cache ≠ Celery, authentication ≠ authorization, v-if ≠ v-show, Beat ≠ Worker. Follow-up ke liye ek difference ready rakho.

    Project example: action fetchVenues → commit setVenues. Mutation sirf array replace.

  4. 4
    inline css
    Times asked 1
    Official solution

    Simplestyle="color:red" ek element. Hard reuse high specificity. What is Inline CSS.

    vs internal <style> vs external file.

    Look: Bootstrap utility classes (margin m-3, flex, grid) ya khud CSS. Responsive = media query / Bootstrap breakpoints se mobile.

    Vue scoped style leak nahi. :class binding. Examiner colour/button live change maange to DevTools nahi, source class dikhao.

    CSS ≠ Bootstrap. Bootstrap CSS+JS framework. Inline style last resort.

    Project example: Avoid inline except live tiny.

    Project example: Avoid inline except live tiny.

    opaque request
    Times asked 2
    Official solution

    SimpleOpaque request/token: andar ka structure client ko meaningful nahi — bas string id. Server pe map hota hai. JWT transparent claims dikhata hai.

    Viva tipSession id opaque hota hai; JWT payload base64 se padh sakte ho (sign alag).

    Suggested flow1) Concept kya hai?
    2) Mere code mein kahan?
    3) Example / demo
    4) Edge case

    Example

    # related file: models.py / routes / template
    # formula: request → check/auth → DB → render/redirect

    Viva tipExact line yaad nahi to honestly related part dikhao. Bluff mat karo.

    Difference between json and jsonify ?
    Times asked 1
    Official solution

    Simplejson.dumps Python object ko JSON string banata hai, jsonify Flask Response banata hai (header ke saath).

    json.dumps({'ok': True}) → '{"ok": true}' (sirf string)

    jsonify(ok=True) → HTTP response, Content-Type: application/json
    
    API route mein jsonify use karo:
    @app.route('/api/users')
    def users():
        return jsonify([{'id': u.id, 'name': u.name} for u in User.query.all()])

    json.dumps se return karoge to browser ise text samajh sakta hai, JSON nahi.

  3. 3
    Make code changes in celery tasks file to change priority of daily_reminder and monthly_reminder
    Times asked 2
    Official solution

    SimpleCelery = background naukri. HTTP request ko 10 second email bhejne ke liye mat rokna.

    Distributed task queue: aap function ko abhi nahi, worker process mein later/retry/schedule pe chalaate ho.

    MAD2 typical jobs: daily reminder mail, monthly HTML report, user-triggered CSV export.

    Web request 200ms hona chahiye. 10,000 emails request thread mein = timeout. Worker alag CPU pe kaam kare.

    Redis broker chahiye. Beat alag process schedule ke liye.

    Example

    @celery.task
    def daily_reminder():
        for u in User.query.filter_by(active=True):
            send_mail(u.email, 'Book something today!')

    Project example: User Export click → 202 Accepted. Worker CSV + email. Daily 6pm Beat reminder.

    Viva tipWorker + Redis bina Beat ke user-triggered chalega. Scheduled jobs ke liye Beat bhi chahiye.

    Official solution

    SimpleCascade parent delete pe children pe kya ho: delete-orphan related rows hata deta hai.

    Example

    db.relationship('Spot', cascade='all, delete-orphan')

    Explain the Models in your project birefly (How many tables and how are they connected)
    Times asked 2
    Official solution

    Simplemodels.py = har table ki class: columns, PK/FK, relationships. Yeh Model layer hai.

    Suggested flow1) Classes list karo
    2) Har table ka kaam 1 line
    3) Relationships (1-M / M-M)
    4) Constraints (unique, nullable)

    Example

    class Lot(db.Model):
        id = db.Column(db.Integer, primary_key=True)
        name = db.Column(db.String(80), nullable=False)
        spots = db.relationship('Spot', backref='lot', lazy=True)

    SimpleUngli rakhe to 4-line formula — panic ki jagah structure.

    1) File ka role: model / Flask route / Vue SFC / celery task / config
    2) Input kahan: JSON, params, token, props, $route
    3) Kya kaam: query, cache, validation, .delay()
    4) Output: jsonify, this.items, email, redirect

    Unknown keyword: import, decorator, if, commit — har ka reason. Bluff mat.

    Suggested flow1) Kaunsi layer?
    2) Input?
    3) DB/cache/task?
    4) Response/UI?

    Project example: Booking POST: jwt, seats check, commit, 201, Vue list push.

    Viva tipUnknown keyword: import, decorator, if, commit — har ka reason. Panic mat.

    Session vs token
    Times asked 2
    Official solution

    SimpleMAD1 mein usually session-based auth: login pe session['user_id'], har request pe verify.

    Example

    session['user_id'] = user.id
    uid = session.get('user_id')
    user = User.query.get(uid)

    Viva tipSECRET_KEY set karo warna session insecure. logout pe session.clear().

    Used Local API or Rest API ?
    Times asked 2
    Official solution

    SimpleAPI = Application Programming Interface — do systems predefined rules se baat karti hain. REST API HTTP + JSON use karti hai.

    Controller/route HTML bhi return kar sakta hai. REST API generally JSON return karti hai, frontend alag ho (Vue/Postman).

    Example

    @app.route('/api/users/<int:id>')
    def get_user(id):
        u = User.query.get_or_404(id)
        return jsonify(id=u.id, name=u.name)

    MAD1 HTML apps mein 'API' kabhi-kabhi routes ko hi keh dete hain. Agar Vue nahi to bolo: server-rendered Flask, JSON APIs optional.
    Boolean return: technically jsonify(True) ho sakta hai, lekin meaningful JSON object better. Flask view None return kare to error.
    Test: Postman se GET/POST.
    Parsing: request.get_json() body se, request.args query se.

    Official solution

    SimpleAuthentication: tu kaun hai? (login). Authorization: tujhe permission hai? (role check).

    Example

    # auth
    if check_password_hash(user.password, pwd):
        session['user_id'] = user.id
    
    # authz
    if user.role != 'admin':
        abort(403)
