1.What are the steps to connect to a database from within a Python application ?

Answer :

The steps to connect to a database from within a Python application are as

follows :

Step 1 : Start Python.

Step 2 : Import the packages required for database programming.

Step 3 : Open a connection.

Step 4 : Create a cursor instance.

Step 5 : Execute a query.

Step 6 : Extract data from result set.

Step 7 : Clean up the environment.

2. Write code to connect to a MySQL database namely School and then fetch all those
records from table Student where grade is ' A' .

Answer :

Table Student of MySQL database School

rollno name marks grade section project

101 RUHANII 76.8 A A PENDING

102 GEOGRE 71.2 B A SUBMITTED

 rollno name marks grade section project

103 SIMRAN 81.2 A B EVALUATED

104 ALI 61.2 B C ASSIGNED

105 KUSHAL 51.6 C C EVALUATED

106 ARSIYA 91.6 A+ B SUBMITTED

107 RAUNAK 32.5 F B SUBMITTED

import mysql.connector as mysql

db_con = mysql.connect(
host = "localhost",
user = "root",
password = "tiger",
database = "School"
)

cursor = db_con.cursor()

cursor.execute("SELECT * FROM Student WHERE grade = 'A'")

student_records = cursor.fetchall()

for student in student_records:

print(student)

db_con.close()

Output
(101, 'RUHANII', 76.8, 'A', 'A', 'PENDING')
(103, 'SIMRAN', 81.2, 'A', 'B', 'EVALUATED')

3. Predict the output of the following code :

import mysql.connector
db = mysql.connector.connect(....)
cursor = db.cursor()
sql1 = "update category set name = '%s' WHERE ID = %s" %
('CSS',2)
cursor.execute(sql1)
db.commit()
print("Rows affected:", cursor.rowcount)
db.close()
Answer :

Table category
id name

1 abc

2 pqr

3 xyz

Output
Rows affected: 1

SELECT * FROM category ;

+----+------+
| id | name |
+----+------+
| 1 | abc |
| 2 | CSS |
| 3 | xyz |
+----+------+

Explanation
This Python script uses the mysql.connector module to connect to MySQL
database. It updates the 'name' field in the 'category' table where ID is 2 to
'CSS'. The cursor.execute() method executes the SQL
query, db.commit() commits the changes, and cursor.rowcount gives
the number of affected rows. Finally, db.close() closes the database
connection, ending the Python interface with the MySQL database.

4. Explain what the following query will do ?

import mysql.connector
db = mysql.connector.connect(....)
cursor = db.cursor()
person_id = input("Enter required person id")
lastname = input("Enter required lastname")
db.execute("INSERT INTO staff (person_id, lastname) VALUES
({}, '{}')".format(person_id, lastname))
db.commit()
db.close()
Answer :
This Python script uses the mysql.connector package to connect to MySQL database.
Then it prompts users for person ID and last name, inserts these values into the 'staff'
table, using the INSERT INTO SQL statement. After that, it executes the SQL query using
the db.execute method. The changes made by the query are then committed to the
database using db.commit(), ensuring that the changes are saved permanently.
Finally, db.close() closes the database connection, ending the Python interface with the
MySQL database.

5. Explain what the following query will do ?

import mysql.connector
db = mysql.connector.connect(....)
cursor = db.cursor()
db.execute("SELECT * FROM staff WHERE person_id in
{}".format((1, 3, 4)))
db.commit()
db.close()
answer:
This Python script uses the mysql.connector package to connect to MySQL database. It
executes an SQL SELECT query on the 'staff' table, retrieving all rows where the
'person_id' is 1, 3, 4 (using the IN clause). The db.commit() is unnecessary for a SELECT
query since it doesn't modify the database, and db.close() closes the database
connection, ending the Python interface with the MySQL database.

TYPE B SOLUTIONS
1.Design a Python application that fetches all the records from Pet table
of menagerie database.

ANSWER :
import mysql.connector

db_con = mysql.connector.connect(host = "localhost",

user = "root",
passwd = "lion",
database = "menagerie")
cursor = db_con.cursor()

cursor.execute("SELECT * FROM Pet")

records = cursor.fetchall()
for record in records:
print(record)

db_con.close()

Output
('Fluffy', 'Harold', 'cat', 'f', datetime.date(1993, 2, 4), None)
('Claws', 'Gwen', 'cat', 'm', datetime.date(1994, 3, 17), None)
('Buffy', 'Harold', 'dog', 'f', datetime.date(1989, 5, 13), None)
('Fang', 'Benny', 'dog', 'm', datetime.date(1990, 8, 27), None)
('Bowser', 'Diane', 'dog', 'm', datetime.date(1979, 8, 31),
datetime.date(1995, 7, 29))
('Chirpy', 'Gwen', 'bird', 'f', datetime.date(1998, 9, 11), None)
('Whistler', 'Gwen', 'bird', None, datetime.date(1997, 12, 9), None)
('Slim', 'Benny', 'snake', 'm', datetime.date(1996
2. Design a Python application that fetches only those records from Event table
of menagerie database where type is Kennel.

Answer :
import mysql.connector

db_con = mysql.connector.connect(host = "localhost",

user = "root",
passwd = "lion",
database = "menagerie")
cursor = db_con.cursor()
cursor.execute("SELECT * FROM event WHERE type = 'kennel'")

records = cursor.fetchall()
for record in records:
print(record)

db_con.close()

Output
('Bowser', datetime.date(1991, 10, 12), 'kennel', None)
('Fang', datetime.date(1991, 10, 12), 'kennel',

3. Schema of table EMPL is shown below :
