Django ORM - QuerySet Filtering and Lookups / Ordering and Slicing QuerySets

In this video, we'll dive into many topics, including how to filter QuerySets of records in Django, using the filter() and exclude() functions, and how to pass lookups such as "gt" (greater than), "lt" (less than), "range", "in", and "startswith". We will see how these lookups translate to the underlying SQL, for example: "in" = IN operator in SQL "range" = BETWEEN operator etc We will also look at how to order QuerySets in Django, using the order_by() function, and using the model Meta class to define a default ordering. We'll also see how to apply the Lower database function in order to retrieve a case-insensitive ordering over character fields. We'll see how to index/slice into QuerySets, how to use the get() function to retrieve a model, the exists() function to check for the existence of records in a QuerySet, and the earliest() and latest() functions to retrieve the earliest and latest objects using a date/datetime field.
