- """
- 6. Specifying ordering
- Specify default ordering for a model using the ``ordering`` attribute, which
- should be a list or tuple of field names. This tells Django how to order
- ``QuerySet`` results.
- If a field name in ``ordering`` starts with a hyphen, that field will be
- ordered in descending order. Otherwise, it'll be ordered in ascending order.
- The special-case field name ``"?"`` specifies random order.
- The ordering attribute is not required. If you leave it off, ordering will be
- undefined -- not random, just undefined.
