"Represent" from web2py book....

But what exactly are the relationship between "other_id" and "is" in the 
second example?
And in the third from what is get the variable "value"?
Thank you

.represent can be None or can point to a function that takes a field value 
and returns an alternate representation for the field value.

Examples:

1
2
3

db.mytable.name.represent = lambda name, row: 
name.capitalize()db.mytable.other_id.represent = lambda id, row: 
row.myfielddb.mytable.some_uploadfield.represent = lambda value, row: A('get 
it', _href=URL('download', args=value))
