Hello I have a MySQL database and I can run the following script using the command prompt
SELECT location, SUM(IF(gender='M',1,0)) AS M, SUM(IF(gender='F',1,0)) AS F FROM locations INNER JOIN employees USING (loc_code) GROUP BY location;
this also works within Zope
but when I try to run this from the python prompt I get an
File "<stdin>", line 1 b.execute('SELECT location, SUM(IF(gender='M',1,0)) AS M, SUM(IF(gender='F',1,0)) AS F FROM locations INNER JOIN employees USING (loc_code) GROUP BY location') ^ SyntaxError: invalid syntax
this is what I did
import MySQLdb db = MySQLdb.connect(db='mydb',user='myuser',passwd='mypasswd') b = db.cursor() b.execute('myquery')
error
any ideas
thanks
norman
