# Example usage of some QuerySet methods
from .models import Product

# Get all products
all_products = Product.objects.all()

# Filter products by price
expensive_products = Product.objects.filter(price__gt=100)

# Exclude products from a specific category
other_products = Product.objects.exclude(category__name='Electronics')

# Get a single product by ID
try:
    single_product = Product.objects.get(id=1)
except Product.DoesNotExist:
    single_product = None

# Order products by name
sorted_products = Product.objects.order_by('name')

# Get list of product names
product_names = Product.objects.values_list('name', flat=True)

# Count total products
product_count = Product.objects.count()

# Create a new product
new_product = Product.objects.create(name='New Widget', price=25)
