departments_id meaning? #18

Closed Otiel closed 6 years ago

Otiel commented 6 years ago

What's the meaning of the departments_id column? It seems that it's not equal to the department number.

Stanislas-Poisson commented 6 years ago

These reseources are build to be used in a database with foreign_keys. So in the cities data the departments_id refere to the id of the departments data, and in this one it's the same with the region_id refere to the id of the regions data.

I hope to have been clear in my explanations.

That's clear, thanks!
