What is the difference between a primary key and a foreign key?
Primary key is the unique identifier for an entry in a table. A foreign key is a value in a table that references the primary key of another table.
Where would we find a primary key?
Generally in the first column of a table.
What would it be called by default?

Setting Expectations

Setting Group Expectations

Group Member Names: Hector Huertas, Beth Sebian-lead

1. When are group members available to work together? What hours can each group member work individually? Are there any personal time commitments that need to be discussed? Our work calendar is posted here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1QjxyP7p08GaC4Ncxw_rbkp8lwWO6ticnu_-L6dQEp90/edit?usp=sharing

2. How will group members communicate? How often will communication happen, and how will open lines of communication be maintained? We will have a 15-min check-in during lunch every day to review progress from the night before, set new goals for the evening ahead, and confirm our afternoon work time. We will use this time to update Waffle and revise deadlines.

1. How does the Agile model compare to the Waterfall model?
Agile is...

  • More resilient, flexible, able to respond
  • Suited to work that is uncharted
  • Allows for players to deepen understanding of project needs and respond to constraints based on best, most recent information

2. Why do you think Agile is so popular in software development?
Software is developed for clients (business people) by software developers to be used by users. While each group can have some insight into the others' needs from the beginning, it is impossible for each group to understand the needs, behaviors, and constraints of the other groups. As an iterative process, Agile development allows these three groups to deepen their understanding and ability to respond to each others needs based on successive interactions.

3. Do you think Agile is applicable in all industries?

CRUD in Sinatra -- Check for Understanding

  1. Define CRUD.
    CRUD defines the four features an app that interacts with a database should have: create, read, update, delete.

  2. There are seven verb + path combinations that are necessary in a basic Sinatra app in order to provide full CRUD functionality. List each of the seven combinations, and explain what each is for.

    • get '/tasks' - displays (reads) all existing tasks in database
    • get '/tasks/new' - provides form for inputting new task (create)
    • post '/tasks' - submits data for new task (create)
    • get '/tasks/:id' - displays (reads) data from one task
    • get '/tasks/:id/edit' - provides form for editing existing task (update)
  • put '/tasks/:id' - submits data for revising existing task (update)
