Understand how to implement CRUD operations using Python and SQLAlchemy covering relationships 1:1 relationships in sqlalchemy (CRUD)
1:* relationships in sqlalchemy (CRUD) : relationships in sqlalchemy (CRUD)

1. One-to-many relationship

In this exercise, we will create a one-to-many relationship between a Customer table and an Order table. The Customer table will have a id column that is the primary key, and the Order table will have a customer_id column that is a foreign key to the Customer table. Once you have the tables created, populate them with data such that using JOINs, you can query the data to see how the relationships work. For example, we can get all of the orders for a particular customer by using the join keyword.

2. One-to-one relationship between a User table and a Profile table

In this exercise, we will create a one-to-one relationship between a User table and a Profile table. The User table will have a id column that is the primary key, and the Profile table will have a user_id column that is a foreign key to the User table.Once you have created and populated the tables with data, write a query that finds the profile for a particular user by using the join keyword, eg at id 1.

3. Many-to-many relationship

In this exercise, we will create a many-to-many relationship between a Book table and an Author table. The Book table will have a id column that is the primary key, and the Author table will have a id column that is the primary key. We will also create a BookAuthor table that will store the relationship between books and authors. Once you have all the 3 tables populated, write a query that gets all of the books that were written by a particular author ege 'J.R.R. Tolkien' by using the join keyword.
