.. admonition:: Errors about :attr:`~django.db.models.Field.max_length`

   If Django gives you an error message saying that

   :attr:`~django.db.models.Field.max_length` is not a valid argument, you're

   most likely using an old version of Django. (This version of the tutorial is

   written for the latest development version of Django.) If you're using a

   Subversion checkout of Django's development version (see :ref:`the

   installation docs <topics-install>` for more information), you shouldn't have

   any problems.

   If you want to stick with an older version of Django, you'll want to switch

   to `the Django 0.96 tutorial`_, because this tutorial covers several features

   that only exist in the Django development version.

.. _the Django 0.96 tutorial: http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/0.96/tutorial01/

The code is straightforward. Each model is represented by a class that

subclasses :class:`django.db.models.Model`. Each model has a number of class

variables, each of which represents a database field in the model.
