Store SQLite 3 Data as a Variable in Python

Question

Answer 1

To read a single value from a table, use a SELECT query that returns a result with a single row and a single column:

for row in cursor.execute("SELECT MyColumn FROM MyTable WHERE ID = ?", [123]):
    variable = row[0]
    break
else:
    variable = 0  # not found
