python-mysqlHow do I install MySQL on Python?

To install MySQL on Python, you can use the pip package manager. To do this, open the command line and type:

pip install mysql-connector-python

This will install the mysql-connector-python package which allows you to connect to a MySQL database from Python.

Once the package is installed, you can use the following code to connect to a MySQL database:

import mysql.connector

mydb = mysql.connector.connect(
  host="localhost",
  user="yourusername",
  passwd="yourpassword"
)

print(mydb)

This will output something like this:

<mysql.connector.connection_cext.CMySQLConnection object at 0x7f859d9e7f50>

The code above does the following:

import mysql.connector - imports the mysql.connector module which provides the functions to connect to a MySQL database
mydb = mysql.connector.connect - creates a connection object to connect to the MySQL database
host="localhost" - specifies the hostname of the MySQL server
user="yourusername" - specifies the username of the MySQL server
passwd="yourpassword" - specifies the password of the MySQL server
print(mydb) - prints the connection object
