URL for RetrieveUpdateDestroyReview actually renders RetrieveUpdateDestroyCourse. Kinda confusing, but excellent video!

courses/urls.py should be?:

from django.conf.urls import url

from . import views

urlpatterns = [
    #url(r'^$', views.ListCreateCourse.as_view(), name='course_list'),
    #url(r'(?P<pk>\d+)/$',
    #    views.RetrieveUpdateDestroyCourse.as_view(),
    #    name='course_detail'),
    url(r'^(?P<course_pk>\d+)/reviews/$',
        views.ListCreateReview.as_view(),
        name='review_list'),
    url(r'^(?P<course_pk>\d+)/reviews/(?P<pk>\d+)/$',
        views.RetrieveUpdateDestroyReview.as_view(),
        name='review_detail'),
    url(r'^$', views.ListCreateCourse.as_view(), name='course_list'),
    url(r'(?P<pk>\d+)/$',
        views.RetrieveUpdateDestroyCourse.as_view(),
        name='course_detail'),
]

@sourabh vashisht or Chris Komaroff, were you able to solve this? I'm still getting the Courses when I try to create or destroy articles. How should we use the ^ sign?
