python-mysqlHow can I use Python and MySQL to create an example project on GitHub?

To create an example project on GitHub using Python and MySQL, you can follow the steps listed below:

1. Install the necessary packages for Python and MySQL.
2. Create a GitHub repository for the project.
3. Connect Python to MySQL using the mysql.connector library.
4. Create a MySQL database and tables with the necessary columns.

5. Write a Python script to insert data into the database.

   import mysql.connector
   
   mydb = mysql.connector.connect(
    host="localhost",
    user="yourusername",
    passwd="yourpassword"
   )
   
   mycursor = mydb.cursor()
   
   sql = "INSERT INTO customers (name, address) VALUES (%s, %s)"
   val = ("John", "Highway 21")
   mycursor.execute(sql, val)
   
   mydb.commit()

6. Write a Python script to query the database and print the results.

   import mysql.connector
   
   mydb = mysql.connector.connect(
    host="localhost",
    user="yourusername",
    passwd="yourpassword"
   )
   
   mycursor = mydb.cursor()
   
   mycursor.execute("SELECT * FROM customers")
   
   myresult = mycursor.fetchall()
   
   for x in myresult:
    print(x)

   Output:

   ('John', 'Highway 21')

7. Push the code to the GitHub repository.
