Python insert into mysql

#!/usr/bin/python
 
import MySQLdb
 
# Open database connection
db = MySQLdb.connect("localhost","testuser","test123","TESTDB" )
 
# prepare a cursor object using cursor() method
cursor = db.cursor()
 
# Prepare SQL query to INSERT a record into the database.
sql = """INSERT INTO EMPLOYEE(FIRST_NAME,
         LAST_NAME, AGE, SEX, INCOME)
         VALUES ('Mac', 'Mohan', 20, 'M', 2000)"""
try:
   # Execute the SQL command
   cursor.execute(sql)
   # Commit your changes in the database
   db.commit()
except:
   # Rollback in case there is any error
   db.rollback()
 
# disconnect from server
db.close()

Creating queries dynamically

#!/usr/bin/python
 
import MySQLdb
 
# Open database connection
db = MySQLdb.connect("localhost","testuser","test123","TESTDB" )
 
# prepare a cursor object using cursor() method
cursor = db.cursor()
 
# Prepare SQL query to INSERT a record into the database.
sql = "INSERT INTO EMPLOYEE(FIRST_NAME, \
       LAST_NAME, AGE, SEX, INCOME) \
       VALUES ('%s', '%s', '%d', '%c', '%d' )" % \
       ('Mac', 'Mohan', 20, 'M', 2000)
try:
   # Execute the SQL command
   cursor.execute(sql)
   # Commit your changes in the database
   db.commit()
except:
   # Rollback in case there is any error
   db.rollback()
 
# disconnect from server
db.close()

Passing parameters directly
