Complete demo of the project.

Times asked 1

Official solution

SimpleDemo script pehle se practice karo, 5-7 minute, saari roles.
Suggested flow
1) Register/login user 2) Admin login — CRUD 3) Approval/blacklist 4) Booking/apply 5) Search 6) Validation edge (slots 0, duplicate) 7) Logout
Bolte-bolte dikhao: 'Yahan overbooking rokta hoon'. Code tab kholna jab poochhein.
Crash ho to debug calmly: terminal error, typo, DB path.
Mandatory features skip mat karna — examiner list tick karta hai.
2

Show GitHub repository and verify collaborator.

Times asked 1

Official solution

SimpleGitHub repo public/private policy ke hisaab, MAD-1 collaborator add, commits dikhao.
Repo → Settings → Collaborators → instructor added.
Commits: git log / GitHub History — regular commits better, ek dum 1 commit suspicious.
README + report mein AI usage likha hona chahiye agar use kiya.
3

Show specific project features/functions.

Times asked 1

Official solution

Yeh feature demo hai. Account ready rakho, steps bol ke dikhao.
Role ke hisaab login → action (create/approve/book) → DB/UI pe result → edge case (fail when slots=0 / blacklisted).
Do browser windows: admin + user. Search/filter alag se dikhao.
Agar feature nahi hai to sach bolo aur 2 minute mein kaise add karoge (query + template) explain karo.

Blacklist a user and try logging in with that user.

Times asked 1

Official solution

SimpleBlacklist flag user/company ko block karta hai — login ya features band.
user.is_blacklisted = True; db.session.commit()
Login: if user.is_blacklisted: flash('Blocked'); return
Student dashboard: blacklisted company ke drives hide — query filter join Company.is_blacklisted==False.
Demo: admin blacklist → us user se login fail.

What happens when trek slots become 0? Can users still register?

Times asked 1

Official solution

Definition style question: 1 line simple Hinglish + project example + mini code.
Template'X ka kaam Y hai. Mere project mein Z jagah use hua.'
Example'Session login state rakhta hai. session[user_id]=u.id login pe, logout pe session.clear().'
Agar topic Vue/Celery/Redis ho aur project mein nahi hai to sach bolo, theory example do.

Explain booking status logic (Open/Closed) and its backend implementation.

Times asked 1
Official solution

Examiner code pe ungli rakh ke poochta hai — panic mat karo, 4-line formula bolo.
1) Yeh file/line kya role hai (model / route / template / config)?
2) Input kahan se aata hai (form, URL <id>, session, JSON)?
3) DB pe kya query/write?
4) Output kya (render_template / redirect / jsonify)?
Example
```
@app.route('/book/<int:id>', methods=['POST']) — logged-in user session se, trek id URL se, Booking add, slots--, redirect history.
```
Unknown line: imports (request, url_for, flash), decorators, if checks, commit — har keyword ka reason ready rakho.
8
What is ORM?

Times asked 49
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.
9

Explain CRUD operations.

Times asked 4

Official solution

SimpleCRUD = Create, Read, Update, Delete — kisi bhi resource ke 4 basic operations.
Create: POST, db.session.add(new_user); commit() — register, add trek.
Read: GET, User.query.all() — dashboard list.
Update: POST/PUT, user.name = 'Ram'; commit() — edit profile.
DeletePOST/DELETE, db.session.delete(obj); commit().
REST mapping: POST create, GET read, PUT/PATCH update, DELETE delete.
Admin panel mein yeh 4 dikhana viva demo ka common task hai.

11

Difference between PUT and PATCH.

Times asked 7

Official solution

SimplePUT poori resource replace karta hai, PATCH sirf kuch fields update karta hai.
PUTfull update. Jo fields nahi bheji, woh empty/default ho sakti hain. Idempotent — same request 5 baar bhejo, result same.
PATCHpartial update. Sirf name change karna hai to sirf name bhejo, baaki fields same rehti hain.
ExampleUser {name: Ram, city: Delhi, age: 20}
PUT /user/1 {name: Shyam} → city/age lose ho sakte hain agar poora object nahi bheja.
PATCH /user/1 {name: Shyam} → sirf name Shyam, city Delhi, age 20 same.
MAD1 Flask forms mein aksar POST se update karte hain kyunki HTML form PUT/PATCH native support nahi karta. Theory mein farq yeh hai.
12

What are HTTP methods? Explain each method.

Times asked 1

Official solution

SimpleHTTP methods batate hain request kya karna chahti hai. Common: GET POST PUT PATCH DELETE.
GETread/fetch. Safe, URL se. Page kholna, search.
POSTcreate/submit. Form, login.
PUTpoora replace/update. Idempotent.
PATCHpartial update.
DELETEhataana.
HEAD: sirf headers. OPTIONS: CORS preflight.
Flask: @app.route('/x', methods=['GET','POST'])
Agar methods na likho to default sirf GET.
HTML form native sirf GET/POST. PUT/DELETE JS/fetch ya hidden _method se.
GET se data fetch ho sakta hai, create nahi karna chahiye. POST se theoretically fetch ho sakta hai lekin cache/semantics galat.
DELETE fetch ke liye nahi. GET POST ka kaam officially nahi karta — side effects GET pe mat rakho.
13
What is Jinja?

Times asked 4
Official solution

SimpleJinja2 Flask ka template engine hai. HTML ke andar Python-jaisa data print/loop/if kar sakte ho.
Bina Jinja har user ke liye alag HTML file. Jinja se ek template + data.
```
{{ user.name }} print, {% for x in items %} loop, {% if %} condition, {% extends %} layout.
```
Example routereturn render_template('dash.html', treks=treks)
dash.html: {% for t in treks %}<li>{{ t.name }}</li>{% endfor %}
HTML files templates/ folder mein isliye kyunki Flask default wahan dhundhta hai. render_template Jinja ko run karta hai.
Boolean Jinja handle karta hai: {% if user.is_admin %}.
14

Explain MVC architecture.

Times asked 9

Official solution

SimpleMVC = Model-View-Controller. Code ko 3 hisson mein baant ta hai taaki mix na ho.
Model: data + DB. models.py — User, Trek, Booking classes.
View: jo user dekhta hai. templates/*.html + Jinja.
Controller: beech ka logic. routes / app.py — request lo, model se data, view ko do.
Example flow (register):
Browser form POST → Controller register() → User model save → redirect → View dashboard.html
Draw: Browser → Controller → Model → DB, phir Controller → View → Browser.
ORM na ho to bhi MVC ho sakta hai — Model raw SQL functions ho sakte hain. Structure matter karta hai, library nahi.
MVP/MVVM doosri architectures hain; MAD1 mein MVC expected hai.
15
Change the application's port number.

Times asked 3
Official solution

SimpleFlask default port 5000. Change: app.run(port=8000) ya env PORT, ya flask run --port 8000.
```
if __name__ == '__main__':
    app.run(debug=True, host='0.0.0.0', port=8000)
```
Do apps ek saath: alag ports. Occupied port: error, doosra number try.
16

Times asked 1
Official solution

Simple Jinja loop + if — examiner notepad mein likhwaata hai:
```
{% for t in treks %}
  <p>{{ t.name }} — {{ t.location }}</p>
{% else %}
  <p>No treks</p>
{% endfor %}

{% if user.role == 'admin' %}
  <button>Delete</button>
{% endif %}
```
List filter: {% if x > 10 %}{{ x }}{% endif %}
Length: {{ items|length }} Upper: {{ name|upper }}
Table: loop ke andar <tr><td>

Official solution

SimpleExaminer submitted ZIP chahta hai, local extra changes nahi.
Portal se ZIP download → extract → venv → pip install -r requirements.txt → flask run / python app.py.
Checksum maange to hash match karke dikhao. Camera/OPPE setup unke instructions.
Linux/Mac: paths, gunicorn; Windows paths alag ho to relative paths use karo.

Times asked 1
Official solution

Yeh project-specific feature add/modify hai. 4 layers touch karo: model, route, template, validation.
1) Data chahiye to models.py mein column/relationship + DB update (ALTER / migrate / create_all).
2) Route: GET pe form/page, POST pe request.form se save, flash + redirect.
3) Template: input name=... Jinja se {{ obj.field }} display.
4) Rule: duplicate, range, role check backend pe.
Example naya field 'city':
```
user.city = db.Column(db.String(50))
user.city = request.form.get('city')
<input name='city'>  ...  {{ user.city }}
```

Official solution

SimpleSearch box GET form, backend query filter, results template mein.
```
q = request.args.get('q', '').strip()
results = Doctor.query.filter(Doctor.name.ilike(f'%{q}%')).all() if q else []
return render_template('search.html', results=results, q=q)
```
Jinja: {{ results|length }} matches. Empty: 'No results'.
JS-only filter: saara data pehle load, client filter — chhote lists. Bada data: server search.
Search generally GET (shareable URL). Count: len(results) ya db.func.count.

Explain the booking route.

Times asked 1

Official solution

SimpleRoutes/controllers URLs handle karte hain. app.py app banata hai, models.py data, templates/ views, static/ CSS-JS.
Typical structure:
app.py / __init__.py → Flask app, db.init, register blueprints
models.py → tables
routes.py / views → @app.route functions
templates/ → Jinja HTML
static/ → css, images
instance/*.db → SQLite
Ek route explain karne ka template:
1) URL + methods 2) Auth/role check 3) Form/query se data 4) Business rule (duplicate, slots) 5) db.session 6) render ya redirect
Example GET+POST same route: GET form, POST save.
Data HTML se: form name= → request.form. Data HTML ko: render_template(..., items=query).
Nayi .py file: import karke use karo, warna Flask ko pata nahi. Folder rename: imports/paths/templates check.

21
Difference between Authentication and Authorization.

Times asked 20
Official solution

SimpleAuthentication poochta hai "tu kaun hai?", Authorization poochta hai "tujhe yeh kaam karne ki permission hai?"
Authentication: login. Username + password check karke prove karte ho ki tum genuine user ho. Success pe session/token milta hai.
Authorization: uske baad role check. Admin hi parking lot delete kar sakta hai, normal user nahi.
Example (Flask):
# Authentication
```
if user and check_password_hash(user.password, form_password):
    session['user_id'] = user.id

# Authorization
if session.get('role') != 'admin':
    abort(403)  # logged in ho, lekin allowed nahi
```
Project example: student login = authentication. Student admin dashboard nahi khol sakta = authorization.
Validation alag cheez hai (form sahi bhara hai ya nahi, jaise age 18+).

```
Jinja: {% for r in rows %}<tr><td>{{ r.name|upper }}</td></tr>{% endfor %}
```

SimpleBlacklist flag user/company ko block karta hai — login ya features band.
user.is_blacklisted = True; db.session.commit()
Login: if user.is_blacklisted: flash('Blocked'); return
Student dashboard: blacklisted company ke drives hide — query filter join Company.is_blacklisted==False.
Demo: admin blacklist → us user se login fail.
Patternfilter query → template/JSON. Examiner jo entity bole us class ka naam use karo.
```
@app.route('/admin/blacklisted')
def blacklisted():
    rows = User.query.filter_by(is_blacklisted=True).all()
    return render_template('list.html', rows=rows)

JSON: return jsonify([{'id': r.id, 'name': r.name} for r in rows])
ID se: User.query.get_or_404(id)
Do filters: .filter(Drive.approved==False, Drive.title=='Data Scientist')
```
Join example: students jinhone blacklisted company ke drive pe apply kiya — join Application-Drive-Company.
PUT@app.route('/x/<int:id>', methods=['PUT']) + request.get_json()
url param display: @app.route('/show/<int:id>') return render_template('show.html', id=id)
Form → next page: POST values render_template('out.html', **request.form)

Backend example:
```
pwd = request.form.get('password','')
if len(pwd) < 8 or not re.search(r'[A-Z]', pwd) or not re.search(r'[0-9]', pwd):
    flash('Weak password')
```
Haan, regex se password rules ho sakte hain.
Age 18-99, date >= today, slots <= 30 and > 0, confirm password == password, email '@' .
Duplicate username: User.query.filter_by(email=email).first() or unique=True catch IntegrityError.
Past date: if date < date.today(): reject. Negative slots: if slots < 0: reject; book pe available > 0 check.

What is ORM?

Times asked 49
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.

Write a query to: Display only shortlisted students. Display only pending/completed bookings. Display only blacklisted users. Display bookings matching a filter condition. Display users with NULL mobile numbers.

Times asked 1
Official solution

SimpleBlacklist flag user/company ko block karta hai — login ya features band.
user.is_blacklisted = True; db.session.commit()
Login: if user.is_blacklisted: flash('Blocked'); return
Student dashboard: blacklisted company ke drives hide — query filter join Company.is_blacklisted==False.
Demo: admin blacklist → us user se login fail.
Patternfilter query → template/JSON. Examiner jo entity bole us class ka naam use karo.
```
@app.route('/admin/blacklisted')
def blacklisted():
    rows = User.query.filter_by(is_blacklisted=True).all()
    return render_template('list.html', rows=rows)

JSON: return jsonify([{'id': r.id, 'name': r.name} for r in rows])
ID se: User.query.get_or_404(id)
Do filters: .filter(Drive.approved==False, Drive.title=='Data Scientist')
```
Join example: students jinhone blacklisted company ke drive pe apply kiya — join Application-Drive-Company.
PUT@app.route('/x/<int:id>', methods=['PUT']) + request.get_json()
url param display: @app.route('/show/<int:id>') return render_template('show.html', id=id)

Explain how cascading delete is implemented (e.g., deleting a company also deletes its drives).

Times asked 1

Official solution

SimpleCascade parent ke saath child pe automatic action (generally delete).
Company delete → uski drives bhi delete, warna orphan rows / FK error.
SQLAlchemy: db.relationship('Drive', cascade='all, delete-orphan', backref='company')
SQL: ForeignKey(..., ondelete='CASCADE')
Cascade sirf delete nahi: save-update, merge, refresh-expire, expunge, delete-orphan.
Cascade Update: parent PK change to child FK update (rare, PK mat badlo).
Parent delete jab children active hon: constraint error, ya cascade se children gayab, ya pehle children handle karo — design choice examiner poochta hai.
CSS cascading alag topic hai (styles inherit/override).

Templates: href="{{ url_for('login') }}"
```
Parameter: endpoint ka naam (function name), plus route variables.

25
What is render_template()?

Times asked 3
Official solution

Simplerender_template HTML file ko Jinja se process karke browser ko bhejta hai. Backend data ko frontend se jodta hai.
```
return render_template('dashboard.html', user=user, treks=treks)
```
File templates/dashboard.html honi chahiye.
Keyword arguments template mein variables ban jaate hain: {{ user.name }}.
Route kuch return na kare to Flask error. Boolean return typical HTML view ke liye nahi — string/Response chahiye.
26

How is data passed from the backend to the frontend?

Times asked 1

Official solution

Simple flow: Browser → Route (controller) → Model/DB → phir template (view) → Browser.
Submit example:
1) HTML form POST /register, name='email'
2) register() request.form.get('email')
3) User(email=...) ; db.session.add; commit
4) redirect dashboard
5) dashboard query + render_template
6) Jinja {{ user.email }} / {% for %}
GET search: /search?q=flask → request.args.get('q') → filter ilike → template list.
JSON API: jsonify, frontend fetch().

Official solution

SimpleFlask session request-across data store karta hai, generally signed cookie mein.
session['user_id'] = user.id
uid = session.get('user_id')
session.clear() # logout
Type: dictionary-like (SecureCookieSession). SECRET_KEY se sign — tamper detect.
Store kahan: default client cookie. Server-side Redis/filesystem bhi laga sakte ho.
Browser storage: cookies, localStorage, sessionStorage. Session cookie tab-close pe jaa sakti hai.
Remember-me: permanent session ya alag token cookie.

Explain HTTP methods.

Times asked 3

Official solution

SimpleHTTP methods batate hain request kya karna chahti hai. Common: GET POST PUT PATCH DELETE.
GETread/fetch. Safe, URL se. Page kholna, search.
POSTcreate/submit. Form, login.
PUTpoora replace/update. Idempotent.
PATCHpartial update.
DELETEhataana.
HEAD: sirf headers. OPTIONS: CORS preflight.
Flask: @app.route('/x', methods=['GET','POST'])
Agar methods na likho to default sirf GET.
HTML form native sirf GET/POST. PUT/DELETE JS/fetch ya hidden _method se.
GET se data fetch ho sakta hai, create nahi karna chahiye. POST se theoretically fetch ho sakta hai lekin cache/semantics galat.
DELETE fetch ke liye nahi. GET POST ka kaam officially nahi karta — side effects GET pe mat rakho.
32
Difference between GET and POST.

Times asked 7
Official solution

SimpleGET data mangta hai (read), POST data bhejta hai (create/submit).
GETURL mein dikhta hai, bookmark ho sakta hai, browser back/refresh safe hai, data URL query mein jaata hai. Search, page open, login form dikhana.
POSTbody mein data jaata hai, URL mein password nahi dikhta, refresh pe dubara submit ho sakta hai. Login, register, form save.
Example
# page dikhana
```
@app.route('/login', methods=['GET', 'POST'])
def login():
    if request.method == 'GET':
        return render_template('login.html')
    # POST: form submit
    email = request.form.get('email')
    ...
```
GET se theoretically data bhej sakte ho (?q=flask), lekin create/update ke liye nahi use karna — data log/history mein save ho jaata hai, length limit hoti hai.
HTML form default GET hota hai; method='POST' likhna zaroori hai login/register pe.

Difference between render_template() and redirect().

Times asked 4

Official solution

Simplerender_template HTML page bana ke turant dikhata hai, redirect user ko doosre URL pe bhej deta hai.
render_template('home.html', user=user) → server template fill karke 200 response deta hai. URL same rehta hai.
redirect(url_for('dashboard')) → 302 response, browser naya GET karta hai. URL change ho jaata hai.
Examplelogin POST successful hone ke baad render_template mat use karo, warna refresh pe form dubara submit ho jaayega.
Sahi tarika: redirect(url_for('dashboard')) — yeh Post-Redirect-Get pattern hai.
render_template tab: page dikhana hai with data.
redirect tab: kaam ho gaya, ab doosre page pe le jaana hai (login, delete, update ke baad).

What is a database?

Times asked 1

Official solution

SimpleConstraints rules hain jo galat data rok te hain. Referential integrity FK valid parent ko point kare.
PK, FK, UNIQUE, NOT NULL, CHECK (age >= 18). ORM Column flags yahi map karte hain.
SQL = language tables se baat. Database organized data store.
SQL View: saved query, table jaisi dikhti hai, data copy nahi.
Cluster: kai DB servers together (HA/scale) — MAD1 SQLite single file.
Entity mapping: class User → table user, attributes → columns.
21

What is Database Normalization?

Times asked 2

Official solution

SimpleNormalization data ko split karke redundancy aur update-anomalies kam karti hai.
1NF: atomic values, repeating groups nahi (comma-separated skills mat rakho).
2NF: 1NF + non-key columns poori PK pe depend (composite keys pe).
3NF: 2NF + non-key columns ek doosre pe depend na hon (city→state alag table).
Examplehar booking mein user ka poora address copy vs user_id se User table.
MAD1 project generally 3NF ke kareeb. Higher NF (BCNF) theoretically, practical apps denormalize speed ke liye (cached counts).
Leaderboard: alag table better agar history/rank chahiye; sirf count hai to query se bhi ho sakta hai.
22

Explain MVC architecture.

Times asked 9

Official solution

SimpleMVC = Model-View-Controller. Code ko 3 hisson mein baant ta hai taaki mix na ho.
Model: data + DB. models.py — User, Trek, Booking classes.
View: jo user dekhta hai. templates/*.html + Jinja.
Controller: beech ka logic. routes / app.py — request lo, model se data, view ko do.
Example flow (register):
Browser form POST → Controller register() → User model save → redirect → View dashboard.html
Draw: Browser → Controller → Model → DB, phir Controller → View → Browser.
ORM na ho to bhi MVC ho sakta hai — Model raw SQL functions ho sakte hain. Structure matter karta hai, library nahi.
MVP/MVVM doosri architectures hain; MAD1 mein MVC expected hai.
23

Difference between GET, POST, PUT, and PATCH.

Times asked 2

Official solution

SimpleGET read karta hai, PUT existing resource replace/update karta hai.
GET /users/1 → data lao, side-effect nahi. PUT /users/1 → poora user update, idempotent.
PUT vs FETCH: FETCH HTTP method nahi, JS fetch() function hai jo GET/PUT/POST kuch bhi bhej sakta hai.
Search GET, edit-save PUT/POST. GET se create mat karo.
24

Difference between HTTP and HTTPS.

Times asked 6

Official solution

SimpleHTTP plain text bhejta hai, HTTPS encrypted bhejta hai.
HTTP: data beech mein koi padh sakta hai (password, session). Port 80. Padlock nahi.
HTTPS: SSL/TLS se encrypt. Port 443. Certificate verify hota hai. Man-in-the-middle mushkil.
Examplecafe WiFi pe HTTP login karo to password sniff ho sakta hai. HTTPS pe attacker ko garbage dikhega.
Viva: HTTPS = HTTP + encryption + identity (certificate). Production apps hamesha HTTPS.
25

Difference between REST and RESTful API.

Times asked 1

Official solution

SimpleREST ek architecture style hai, RESTful API us style ko follow karti hai.
REST principles: client-server, stateless, cacheable, uniform interface (HTTP verbs + URLs), layered system.
RESTful: GET /users, POST /users, PUT /users/1, DELETE /users/1 — resources nouns, actions verbs.
RESTless: ek hi /api endpoint, action query mein (?action=delete) — REST rules nahi.
MAD1 mein Flask routes REST-like ho sakte hain chahe jsonify na ho. HTML forms bhi resources pe CRUD karti hain.
26
Difference between Authentication and Authorization.

Times asked 20
Official solution

SimpleAuthentication poochta hai "tu kaun hai?", Authorization poochta hai "tujhe yeh kaam karne ki permission hai?"
Authentication: login. Username + password check karke prove karte ho ki tum genuine user ho. Success pe session/token milta hai.
Authorization: uske baad role check. Admin hi parking lot delete kar sakta hai, normal user nahi.
Example (Flask):
# Authentication
```
if user and check_password_hash(user.password, form_password):
    session['user_id'] = user.id

# Authorization
if session.get('role') != 'admin':
    abort(403)  # logged in ho, lekin allowed nahi
```
Project example: student login = authentication. Student admin dashboard nahi khol sakta = authorization.
Validation alag cheez hai (form sahi bhara hai ya nahi, jaise age 18+).
27

Difference between Inline, Internal, and External CSS.

Times asked 3

Official solution

SimpleCSS 3 tarikon se lagti hai, priority Inline > Internal > External (same specificity pe).
Inline: style='color:red' element pe. Highest priority, lekin reuse nahi. Debugging mushkil.
Internal: <style> tag HTML head mein. Us page tak limited.
External: style.css file. Large project ke liye best — ek jagah change, saari pages update.
Example same button pe teeno:
/* external */ .btn { color: blue; }
/* internal */ .btn { color: green; }
 <button class='btn' style='color:red'> → red jeetega
ID (#box) class (.btn) se strong, class element (button) se strong.
!important sabko override karta hai — avoid karo.
Large project: external CSS preferred.

user.is_blacklisted = True; db.session.commit()
Login: if user.is_blacklisted: flash('Blocked'); return
Student dashboard: blacklisted company ke drives hide — query filter join Company.is_blacklisted==False.
Demo: admin blacklist → us user se login fail.
Patternfilter query → template/JSON. Examiner jo entity bole us class ka naam use karo.
```
@app.route('/admin/blacklisted')
def blacklisted():
    rows = User.query.filter_by(is_blacklisted=True).all()
    return render_template('list.html', rows=rows)

Official solution

Yeh project-specific feature add/modify hai. 4 layers touch karo: model, route, template, validation.
1) Data chahiye to models.py mein column/relationship + DB update (ALTER / migrate / create_all).
2) Route: GET pe form/page, POST pe request.form se save, flash + redirect.
3) Template: input name=... Jinja se {{ obj.field }} display.
4) Rule: duplicate, range, role check backend pe.
Example naya field 'city':
```
user.city = db.Column(db.String(50))
user.city = request.form.get('city')
<input name='city'>  ...  {{ user.city }}
```

SimpleDuplicate/overbook rokne ke liye DB constraint + route check dono.
Pehle query: Booking.query.filter_by(user_id=uid, trek_id=tid).first()
Agar exists: flash('Already booked'); return
Slots: if trek.available <= 0: reject else trek.available -= 1; commit
Race condition: unique(user_id, trek_id) constraint — do tabs se double click pe bhi ek hi row.
Blacklist: login pe is_blacklisted check.
Active drive limit: if Company ke paas status=open drive hai to naya mat banne do.

Explain MVC architecture.

Times asked 9

Official solution

SimpleMVC = Model-View-Controller. Code ko 3 hisson mein baant ta hai taaki mix na ho.
Model: data + DB. models.py — User, Trek, Booking classes.
View: jo user dekhta hai. templates/*.html + Jinja.
Controller: beech ka logic. routes / app.py — request lo, model se data, view ko do.
Example flow (register):
Browser form POST → Controller register() → User model save → redirect → View dashboard.html
Draw: Browser → Controller → Model → DB, phir Controller → View → Browser.
ORM na ho to bhi MVC ho sakta hai — Model raw SQL functions ho sakte hain. Structure matter karta hai, library nahi.
MVP/MVVM doosri architectures hain; MAD1 mein MVC expected hai.

What is ORM?

Times asked 49
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.
10
Why do we use db.Model?

Times asked 1
Official solution

Simpledb Flask-SQLAlchemy ka object hai. Models db.Model se inherit karti hain, tables db.create_all() se banti hain.
db = SQLAlchemy()
db.init_app(app) # factory pattern
```
with app.app_context():
    db.create_all()

db.Model SQLAlchemy declarative base (class). Columns se table schema.
```
db properties engine/session/metadata se aati hain, Flask app config (SQLALCHEMY_DATABASE_URI) se bind.
Admin user: create_all sirf tables; admin seed alag function mein (if not User.query.filter_by(role='admin').first(): ...).
Live schema change: Flask-Migrate/Alembic. create_all nayi tables add kare, existing columns alter nahi karta generally.

How many HTTP methods are there?

Times asked 1

Official solution

SimpleHTTP methods batate hain request kya karna chahti hai. Common: GET POST PUT PATCH DELETE.
GETread/fetch. Safe, URL se. Page kholna, search.
POSTcreate/submit. Form, login.
PUTpoora replace/update. Idempotent.
PATCHpartial update.
DELETEhataana.
HEAD: sirf headers. OPTIONS: CORS preflight.
Flask: @app.route('/x', methods=['GET','POST'])
Agar methods na likho to default sirf GET.
HTML form native sirf GET/POST. PUT/DELETE JS/fetch ya hidden _method se.
GET se data fetch ho sakta hai, create nahi karna chahiye. POST se theoretically fetch ho sakta hai lekin cache/semantics galat.
DELETE fetch ke liye nahi. GET POST ka kaam officially nahi karta — side effects GET pe mat rakho.

Difference between POST and PUT.

Times asked 4
Official solution

SimplePOST nayi cheez create karta hai, PUT existing cheez ko replace/update karta hai.
POST /books → naya book add. Har baar naya ID banega. Idempotent nahi — 2 baar POST = 2 records.
PUT /books/5 → id=5 wale book ko poora update. Same PUT dubara bhejo to same result (idempotent).
PUT se create bhi ho sakta hai (agar ID client decide kare), lekin REST convention: create = POST, replace = PUT, partial = PATCH.
Example
```
@app.route('/user', methods=['POST'])          # register naya user
@app.route('/user/<int:id>', methods=['PUT'])  # poora profile replace
```
HTML <form> PUT nahi bhejta, isliye Flask apps mein edit pe bhi POST use hota hai. Examiner ko yeh reason clearly bolo.

What is a Flask API?

Times asked 1
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.
