redirect vs reverse django

Question

I have experienced using reverse within get_absolute_url method in the model, but I wish I have an idea about the difference between reverse and redirect, I have tried to search on google about it but there is almost nothing I don't know what should I write also to convince stack overflow that I don't have any other description

Answer 1

reverse in Django is used to dynamically get the url of a resource sucha as a view,

eg 

reverse('post-index')

will give '/post/', provided that you have given the urlpattern a name of post-index.

while redirect will redirect a user to another page. In this there is no use of resources.
