## Models, Databases, Relationships in Rails

#### What is the difference between a primary key and a foreign key? Where would we find a primary key? What would it be called by default? Where would we find a foreign key? What is the naming convention for a foreign key?
Primary Key is the unigue key for table x, foreign key is putting x's primary key into another table to establish a relationship. The default name is 'id'. A foreign key can be in any table, usually in the 'many' of a one-to-many relationship. Naming convention is tablename_id.


#### Write down one example of:
* a `one-to-one `relationship.
Each person has one toothbrush
* a `one-to-many relationship`.

Introduction to Sinatra

1. What is the purpose of the server file (routing)?

The server file acts as the executable code. It processes the incoming HTTP message and generates the correct output to return to the user.

2. How do you pass variables into the views?

You declare an instance variable. When the server file is executed it inherits the current state, including the instance variables.
