Demo of the complete application.

Times asked 2

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) 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.

What architecture are you using?

Times asked 2

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.

How do controllers communicate/interact with each other?

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.

Explain your database schema.

Times asked 3
Official solution

Simplemodels.py har table ki class hai — columns, PK/FK, relationships. Yeh Model layer hai.
Viva mein file khol ke bolo:
1) Kaunsi classes/tables hain (User, Role-specific, Booking...)
2) Har table ka kaam 1 line
3) Relationships: 1-1 / 1-M / M-M, backref, cascade, lazy
4) Constraints: unique email, nullable, default status
Example skeleton
```
class User(db.Model):
    id = db.Column(db.Integer, primary_key=True)
    email = db.Column(db.String(120), unique=True, nullable=False)
    role = db.Column(db.String(20), default='user')
    bookings = db.relationship('Booking', backref='user', cascade='all, delete-orphan')
```
ER diagram: rectangles entities, lines relationships, PK/FK mark. Schema = yahi structure.
Tables create: db.create_all() ya migrations. SQLite file SQL viewer se dikha sakte ho.
10
Explain all tables and their relationships.

Times asked 1
Official solution

SimpleRelationships tables ko jodti hain taaki related data object se mil jaaye.
One-to-Many: User → kai Posts. posts = relationship('Post', backref='author'). FK post.user_id.
One-to-One: User → Profile. uselist=False + unique FK. Profile.user_id unique.
Many-to-Many: Student ↔ Drive. Junction/secondary table (student_id, drive_id).
Example 1-1:
```
class Profile(db.Model):
    user_id = db.Column(db.Integer, db.ForeignKey('user.id'), unique=True)
    user = db.relationship('User', back_populates='profile', uselist=False)
```
1-M ko 1-1: child FK pe unique=True + uselist=False.
Parent-child: parent PK, child FK. Junction table extra columns bhi rakh sakti hai (applied_on).

SimpleCSS page ko style karti hai — color, layout, font. HTML structure, CSS look.
h1 { color: navy; } .card { padding: 16px; } #logo { width: 80px; }
Selectors: element (h3), class (.btn), id (#nav), pseudo (:hover).
display:flex — ek line/row mein items, justify-content/align-items se center.
Multiple classes: saari apply, conflict pe specificity/order.
Responsive: media queries / Bootstrap grid. Bina CSS limited (old tables) — practically CSS chahiye.

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.

Official solution

Yeh live UI/CSS change hai. Examiner jo element bole uski CSS turant badlo.
Bootstrap class badlo (btn-primary → btn-success, bg-dark → bg-warning) ya inline style='color:red; background:#eee'.
Center: d-flex justify-content-center text-center. Navbar neeche: navbar fixed-bottom.
Example
```
<button class='btn btn-success' style='background:#16a34a'>Book</button>
```
Pehle browser inspect karke class dhundo, phir template mein change karke refresh.

What is template inheritance?

Times asked 3
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
```

Are you using Session-based or Token-based authentication?

Times asked 1

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.

What is the difference between Session and Cookies?

Times asked 1

Official solution

SimpleCookie browser mein save hoti hai, Session server pe data rakhta hai aur browser ko sirf ID deta hai.
Cookie: key-value browser pe. JS padh sakta hai (agar HttpOnly nahi). Size chhoti (~4KB).
Session: server-side dict. Flask default mein session data signed cookie mein hi store hota hai (client pe, lekin tamper-proof).
Example
session['user_id'] = 12 # login ke baad
# browser ko Set-Cookie milti hai
Tab close: default Flask session cookie browser close pe delete (session cookie). Permanent session alag hota hai.
Incognito: cookies isolated, isliye logged-in nahi dikhega.
SECRET_KEY se session sign hota hai — key nahi to session insecure/kaam nahi karega.
30
What is the difference between Authentication and Authorization?

Times asked 4
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+).
31

What authentication method are you using? (JWT)

Times asked 1

Official solution

SimpleJWT = JSON Web Token — signed string jisme user id/role hota hai. Har request header mein jaata hai. Session server pe store, JWT client pe.
Login → server token deta hai → Authorization: Bearer <token>
Payload: {sub: user_id, role: admin, exp: ...} — padha ja sakta hai, change nahi (signature).
Session: browser cookie, server-rendered Flask ke liye simple.
Token: mobile/Vue SPA, scaling (server memory nahi). Store: memory/httpOnly cookie, localStorage XSS risk.
MAD1 mostly session. Flask-Security session+login, JWT APIs ke liye.

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.

Typical Flask flowBrowser request → @app.route controller → SQLAlchemy model/DB → Jinja template response.
Auth: session['user_id'] + role check. CRUD: add/commit, query.all, field update, delete.
Live change maange to: related model → route → template, phir browser refresh karke dikhao.
Example (generic create):
obj = Model(name=request.form.get('name'))
```
db.session.add(obj); db.session.commit()
return redirect(url_for('list_view'))

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.

Which validation is more important?

Times asked 1
Official solution

SimpleFrontend validation UX ke liye, Backend validation security ke liye. Dono chahiye, backend zyada important hai.
Frontend: HTML required, minlength, JS/regex. User ko turant error dikhta hai. Bypass easy (DevTools / Postman).
Backend: Flask route mein checks. Asli security yahi hai. Hacker frontend skip karke POST bhej sakta hai.
Example frontend
```
<input type='number' min='18' max='99' required>
```
Example backend
```
age = int(request.form.get('age') or 0)
if age < 18 or age >= 100:
    flash('Invalid age')
    return redirect(url_for('register'))

Difference between Python HTTP and Flask HTTP methods.

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.

How is data sent from client to server?

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().
33

What is AJAX?

Times asked 4

Official solution

SimpleAJAX page reload ke bina server se data laata hai. Aaj kal fetch() + Promises.
fetch('/api/users').then(r => r.json()).then(data => { ... })
Promise: future value (pending/fulfilled/rejected). fetch Promise return karta hai.
SPA (Vue): ek HTML, baaki routes JS se, partial update. MAD1 generally full page render (Jinja) — submit pe poora refresh.
async/await Promise ka clean syntax.
34

Old HTML: <table cellpadding='10' cellspacing='5'>

table { border-spacing: 5px; } /* spacing */
border-collapse: collapse spacing hata deta hai, borders mil jaate hain.
41
Difference between url_for() and redirect().

Times asked 2
Official solution

Simpleurl_for sirf URL string banata hai, redirect us URL pe browser ko bhejta hai.
url_for('home') → '/home' (function name se URL nikalta hai)
redirect(url_for('home')) → browser ko /home pe le jaata hai
Example
```
return redirect(url_for('dashboard'))  # sahi
return redirect('/dashboard')         # hardcode, route change pe toot jaayega

Agar url_for('home') ko url_for('home_page') kar do aur home_page naam ka function nahi hai to BuildError aayega.

What is Bootstrap?

Times asked 5
Official solution

SimpleBootstrap CSS/JS framework — ready classes se responsive UI.
```
<button class='btn btn-primary'>Save</button>
```
Red button: btn btn-danger. Navbar, cards, grid (row/col).
CDN: <link href='https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/bootstrap@5...'> — internet na ho to style toot sakti hai. Local copy safer viva ke liye.
CSS vs Bootstrap: Bootstrap faster consistent UI, custom CSS fine-control. Dono saath use ho sakte hain.
aria-current='page' accessibility — current nav item screen readers ko.
CDN fayda: cache, quick setup. Nuksaan: offline, privacy, version lock.

What is JSON?

Times asked 1

Official solution

SimpleJSON = JavaScript Object Notation — data exchange ka text format.
{"name": "Ram", "age": 20}
APIs, localStorage, Chart.js data. Python dict ↔ JSON.
Structured data: tables, fixed schema (SQL). Unstructured: images, logs, free text. JSON semi-structured.
SQL structured relational. Mongo unstructured/document.
45
Can an API return a Boolean value?

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.

1) Kaunsi classes/tables hain (User, Role-specific, Booking...)
2) Har table ka kaam 1 line
3) Relationships: 1-1 / 1-M / M-M, backref, cascade, lazy
4) Constraints: unique email, nullable, default status
Example skeleton
```
class User(db.Model):
    id = db.Column(db.Integer, primary_key=True)
    email = db.Column(db.String(120), unique=True, nullable=False)
    role = db.Column(db.String(20), default='user')
    bookings = db.relationship('Booking', backref='user', cascade='all, delete-orphan')

SimpleForeign Key doosri table ki PK ko refer karti hai, relationship + referential integrity.
```
user_id = db.Column(db.Integer, db.ForeignKey('user.id'), nullable=False)

Invalid user_id insert nahi hoga. FK unique nahi hona zaroori — One-to-Many mein same user_id kai rows.
FK + PK same column: 1-1 sharing, jaise AdminProfile.id = FK to user.id.

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 }}

SimpleValidation galat data rok ti hai — frontend turant, backend must.
Frontend: required, min='18', maxlength='8', pattern='(?=.*[A-Z]).{8,}'
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.

Yeh MAD-1 viva question tumhare project ke context se linked hai. Short answer is structure se do:
Pehle 1 line definition/purpose, phir tumhare project ka example, phir chhota code/flow.
Typical Flask flowBrowser request → @app.route controller → SQLAlchemy model/DB → Jinja template response.
Auth: session['user_id'] + role check. CRUD: add/commit, query.all, field update, delete.
Live change maange to: related model → route → template, phir browser refresh karke dikhao.
Example (generic create):
obj = Model(name=request.form.get('name'))

Difference between TRUNCATE and DROP.

Times asked 1

SimpleDELETE rows hataata hai, TRUNCATE poori table empty karta hai, DROP table hi mita deta hai.
DELETE FROM user WHERE id=5; — specific rows, WHERE chal sakta hai, trigger/rollback possible.
TRUNCATE TABLE user; — saari rows, tez, identity reset, WHERE nahi.
DROP TABLE user; — table structure bhi gayi.
ORM: db.session.delete(obj) = DELETE. Table drop rarely Flask se.
51
Difference between PRIMARY KEY and FOREIGN KEY.

Times asked 1
Official solution

SimplePrimary Key row ki unique ID hai, Foreign Key doosri table ki Primary Key ko point karti hai.
Primary Key: unique + not null. Har table mein hota hai. Example: user.id = 5
Foreign Key: relationship banati hai. post.user_id = 5 matlab yeh post user 5 ki hai.
Example
```
class User(db.Model):
    id = db.Column(db.Integer, primary_key=True)
class Post(db.Model):
    id = db.Column(db.Integer, primary_key=True)
    user_id = db.Column(db.Integer, db.ForeignKey('user.id'))
```
FK Primary Key bhi ho sakti hai (1-to-1 profile table). FK unique ho to One-to-One, nahi to One-to-Many.
52

Difference between PRIMARY KEY and UNIQUE KEY.

Times asked 1

Official solution

SimplePrimary Key table ki main identity hai (ek hi), Unique Key extra unique column ho sakta hai (kai).
PK: NOT NULL + UNIQUE, sirf ek clustered identity. Example: id
Unique: duplicate nahi, lekin NULL allow ho sakta hai. Example: email, username
UNIQUE + NOT NULL + AUTO_INCREMENT PK jaisa behave karta hai, lekin table ki official PK nahi. Relationships/FK generally PK ko refer karti hain.
Isliye alag Primary Key rakhna better hai.

```
age = db.Column(db.Integer, nullable=True)  # optional
status = db.Column(db.String(20), default='pending')
```
__tablename__ = 'users' # table name override
User.query.all() → list of User. .first() → User ya None. .get_or_404(id) → User ya 404.
filter_by(...) Query object return karta hai, execute .all() pe. Type: BaseQuery / list after all().

What is a RESTful API?

Times asked 4
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.

Why didn't you use APIs in your application?

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.

HTTP request methods (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, etc.).

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.

Official solution

Yeh MAD-1 viva question tumhare project ke context se linked hai. Short answer is structure se do:
Pehle 1 line definition/purpose, phir tumhare project ka example, phir chhota code/flow.
Typical Flask flowBrowser request → @app.route controller → SQLAlchemy model/DB → Jinja template response.
Auth: session['user_id'] + role check. CRUD: add/commit, query.all, field update, delete.
Live change maange to: related model → route → template, phir browser refresh karke dikhao.
Example (generic create):
obj = Model(name=request.form.get('name'))
```
db.session.add(obj); db.session.commit()
return redirect(url_for('list_view'))
```

What is status code 501?

Times asked 1

Official solution

SimpleStatus code number batata hai request ka result.
200 OK — success, page/data mil gaya.
201 Created — POST se naya resource.
302/303 Found/See Other — redirect (login ke baad).
304 Not Modified — cache use karo.
400 Bad Request — galat input.
401 Unauthorized — login nahi (ironically authentication missing).
403 Forbidden — login hai, permission nahi.
404 Not Found — route/record nahi.
500 Internal Server Error — server crash (DB error, NoneType). debug=True pe traceback.
501 Not Implemented — method server nahi sambhalta.
abort(404) Flask mein. get_or_404(id) record na ho to 404.
User ID GET pe exist na kare to 404 return karo, 500 nahi.

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.

os.getenv('SECRET_KEY') environment se config, hardcode nahi. .env alternative: actual OS env, config.py, vault.
HTML metadata: <meta charset>, <meta name='viewport'> — page ke baare mein, body content nahi.
HTTP metadata: headers (Content-Type, Set-Cookie).
Request payload: body data (JSON/form).

What is MVC?

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.

Simple2-tier = client seedha database se baat karta hai. 3-tier = beech mein application server hota hai.
2-tier: UI + DB. Jaise desktop app directly SQLite. Simple, lekin security/scaling kam.
3-tier: Presentation (browser) → Application (Flask) → Data (SQLite/MySQL). MAD1 project yahi hai.

Sessions vs Cookies.

Times asked 1

Official solution

SimpleCookie browser mein save hoti hai, Session server pe data rakhta hai aur browser ko sirf ID deta hai.
Cookie: key-value browser pe. JS padh sakta hai (agar HttpOnly nahi). Size chhoti (~4KB).
Session: server-side dict. Flask default mein session data signed cookie mein hi store hota hai (client pe, lekin tamper-proof).
Example
session['user_id'] = 12 # login ke baad
# browser ko Set-Cookie milti hai
Tab close: default Flask session cookie browser close pe delete (session cookie). Permanent session alag hota hai.
Incognito: cookies isolated, isliye logged-in nahi dikhega.
SECRET_KEY se session sign hota hai — key nahi to session insecure/kaam nahi karega.

Authentication vs Authorization.

Times asked 10
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+).
92
How did you implement authorization?

Times asked 1
Official solution

SimpleAuthentication session se, Authorization role/ownership check se.
```
def admin_required(f):
    @wraps(f)
    def wrap(*a,**k):
        if session.get('role') != 'admin':
            abort(403)
        return f(*a,**k)
    return wrap
```
Jinja: {% if session['role']=='admin' %}<a href='/admin'>Admin</a>{% endif %}
Yeh hide hai, security nahi — route pe check zaroori. Admin authenticated bhi hai (logged in) aur authorized bhi (role).
93

How did you ensure session management?

Times asked 1

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.

SimpleChecksum file ka hash (jaise SHA256) — file change hui ya nahi verify.
Portal pe submitted ZIP ka checksum diya hota hai. Local file ka hash nikaalo, match hona chahiye.

Perform CRUD operations.

Times asked 3

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.

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.

Official solution

SimpleValidation galat data rok ti hai — frontend turant, backend must.
Frontend: required, min='18', maxlength='8', pattern='(?=.*[A-Z]).{8,}'
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.

SimpleRelationships tables ko jodti hain taaki related data object se mil jaaye.
One-to-Many: User → kai Posts. posts = relationship('Post', backref='author'). FK post.user_id.
One-to-One: User → Profile. uselist=False + unique FK. Profile.user_id unique.
Many-to-Many: Student ↔ Drive. Junction/secondary table (student_id, drive_id).
Example 1-1:
```
class Profile(db.Model):
    user_id = db.Column(db.Integer, db.ForeignKey('user.id'), unique=True)
    user = db.relationship('User', back_populates='profile', uselist=False)

SimplePrimary Key har row ko uniquely identify karti hai. Unique Key bhi unique hoti hai lekin table ki main ID nahi.
```
id = db.Column(db.Integer, primary_key=True)  # auto increment
email = db.Column(db.String(120), unique=True)
```
PK: NOT NULL, ek (ya composite). Index automatically.
Record fetch: User.query.get(id) PK se tez.
FK hamesha unique nahi — Many side pe repeat hoti hai. Unique FK = One-to-One.

SimpleForeign Key doosri table ki PK ko refer karti hai, relationship + referential integrity.
```
user_id = db.Column(db.Integer, db.ForeignKey('user.id'), nullable=False)
```
Invalid user_id insert nahi hoga. FK unique nahi hona zaroori — One-to-Many mein same user_id kai rows.
FK + PK same column: 1-1 sharing, jaise AdminProfile.id = FK to user.id.
Should FK always unique? Nahi. Tab One-to-One chahiye ho tab unique.

Official solution

Simplemodels.py har table ki class hai — columns, PK/FK, relationships. Yeh Model layer hai.
Viva mein file khol ke bolo:
1) Kaunsi classes/tables hain (User, Role-specific, Booking...)
2) Har table ka kaam 1 line
3) Relationships: 1-1 / 1-M / M-M, backref, cascade, lazy
4) Constraints: unique email, nullable, default status
Example skeleton
```
class User(db.Model):
    id = db.Column(db.Integer, primary_key=True)
    email = db.Column(db.String(120), unique=True, nullable=False)
    role = db.Column(db.String(20), default='user')
    bookings = db.relationship('Booking', backref='user', cascade='all, delete-orphan')
```

SimpleLIKE case-sensitive ho sakta hai (DB pe depend), ILIKE case-insensitive (Postgres).
```
User.query.filter(User.name.like('Ram%'))   # Ram, Raman
User.query.filter(User.name.ilike('%ram%')) # Ram, RAM, ram
```
SQLite LIKE aksar case-insensitive hota hai ASCII pe. Search boxes mein ilike/%pattern% common hai.

```
class Post(db.Model):
    user_id = db.Column(db.Integer, db.ForeignKey('user.id'))
    user = db.relationship('User', backref='posts')
```
Ab post.user milta hai, aur user.posts bhi — Post model pe sirf ek line.

Official solution

SimpleLazy related data tab laata hai jab maango, Eager pehle hi join karke laata hai.
lazy='select' (default): user.posts access karte hi alag query. N+1 problem ho sakti hai.
eager (joinedload/lazy='joined'): ek hi query mein user + posts.
lazy='dynamic': query object return, aage filter laga sakte ho.
Example
```
users = User.query.all()          # 1 query
for u in users:
    print(u.posts)                # har user pe extra query = N+1
```
FixUser.query.options(joinedload(User.posts)).all()
Eager tab use karo jab related data definitely chahiye (dashboard with nested info).

Yeh MAD-1 viva question tumhare project ke context se linked hai. Short answer is structure se do:
Pehle 1 line definition/purpose, phir tumhare project ka example, phir chhota code/flow.
Typical Flask flowBrowser request → @app.route controller → SQLAlchemy model/DB → Jinja template response.
Auth: session['user_id'] + role check. CRUD: add/commit, query.all, field update, delete.
Live change maange to: related model → route → template, phir browser refresh karke dikhao.
Example (generic create):
obj = Model(name=request.form.get('name'))
```
db.session.add(obj); db.session.commit()
return redirect(url_for('list_view'))
```

What is REST 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.

What are HTTP methods?

Times asked 5

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 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.
47
Difference between PUT and POST.

Times asked 6
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.
48

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.

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.

Authentication vs Authorization.

Times asked 10
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+).

Yeh MAD-1 viva question tumhare project ke context se linked hai. Short answer is structure se do:
Pehle 1 line definition/purpose, phir tumhare project ka example, phir chhota code/flow.
Typical Flask flowBrowser request → @app.route controller → SQLAlchemy model/DB → Jinja template response.
Auth: session['user_id'] + role check. CRUD: add/commit, query.all, field update, delete.
Live change maange to: related model → route → template, phir browser refresh karke dikhao.
Example (generic create):

```
db.session.add(obj); db.session.commit()

```
