sqlite3.ProgrammingError: Incorrect number of bindings supplied. The current statement uses 1, and there are 74 supplied

Question

def insert(array):
    connection=sqlite3.connect(\'images.db\')
    cursor=connection.cursor()
    cnt=0
    while cnt != len(array):
            img = array[cnt]
          


        

Answer 1

You need to pass in a sequence, but you forgot the comma to make your parameters a tuple:

cursor.execute('INSERT INTO images VALUES(?)', (img,))

Without the comma, (img) is just a grouped expression, not a tuple, and thus the img string is treated as the input sequence. If that string is 74 characters long, then Python sees that as 74 separate bind values, each one character long.

>>> len(img)
74
>>> len((img,))
1

If you find it easier to read, you can also use a list literal:

cursor.execute('INSERT INTO images VALUES(?)', [img])

Answer 2

cursor.execute(sql,array)

Only takes two arguments.
It will iterate the "array"-object and match ? in the sql-string.
(with sanity checks to avoid sql-injection)
