To use the MySQL Connector in Python, you need to install it using pip.
pip install mysql-connector-pythonOnce installed, you can use the following code to connect to a MySQL database server:
import mysql.connector
mydb = mysql.connector.connect(
  host="localhost",
  user="yourusername",
  passwd="yourpassword"
)
print(mydb)Output example

- import mysql.connector: imports the MySQL Connector/Python module.
- mydb = mysql.connector.connect(): creates a connection to the MySQL server.
- host,- user, and- passwd: provide the necessary credentials for connecting to the server.
- print(mydb): prints the connection object.
