Answer 1

To do either of these you need to use something called queries.

check link below for really great documentation on that! (https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.2/topics/db/queries/)

To Delete Data:

b = ModelName.objects.get(id = 1)
b.delete()

This will delete the Object of the model w/ an ID of 1

To edit Data:

b = ModelName.objects.get(id = 1)
b.name = 'Henry'
b.save()

This will change the name of the Object of the model w/ an ID of 1 to be Henry
