python-mysqlHow can I use the WHERE IN clause in Python to query a MySQL database?

The WHERE IN clause can be used in Python to query a MySQL database. It is used to filter a result set based on a list of values. The syntax for the WHERE IN clause is as follows:

SELECT * FROM table_name WHERE column_name IN (value1, value2, ...);

For example, to select all rows from a table named "students" where "name" is "John" or "Mary":

SELECT * FROM students WHERE name IN ('John', 'Mary');

The output of the query would be all rows from the "students" table where the "name" column contains either "John" or "Mary".

Code explanation

• SELECT - specifies the columns from the table to be returned
• * - specifies that all columns should be returned
• FROM - specifies the table name
• WHERE - specifies the filter condition for the query
• IN - specifies the list of values for the filter condition
• (value1, value2, ...) - specifies the list of values to be used in the filter condition
