class Article(models.Model):
headline = models.CharField(max_length=255)
publish_date = models.DateTimeField()
content = models.TextField()
def __str__(self):

The Article model's definition provides us with an example of what the syntax is to create a new model. You may also notice that what you need to do to declare the name attribute properly is similar to how the headline attribute was defined for the Article model (essentially, the headline and name attributes are character-based, and allow for up to 255 characters to be entered for them, data-wise.)
from django.db import models
class Article(models.Model):
headline = models.CharField(max_length=255)
publish_date = models.DateTimeField()
content = models.TextField()
def __str__(self):
return self.headline
class Writer(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=255)
Hope this helps!
