sqliteHow can I resolve the error "no such table" when using SQLite?


When using SQLite, the error "no such table" can be resolved by creating the table in the database. To do this, the user must first connect to the database. This can be done with the following code:

import sqlite3

conn = sqlite3.connect('database.db')

Once connected, the user can create the table with the following code:

conn.execute('''CREATE TABLE table_name
    (column_1 datatype, column_2 datatype, ...);''')

In this code:

  • CREATE TABLE is the command used to create a table.
  • table_name is the name of the table being created.
  • column_1 and column_2 are the names of the columns being created in the table.
  • datatype is the type of data that will be stored in the column (e.g. integer, text, date).

Once the table has been created, the user can then insert data into the table.

conn.execute("INSERT INTO table_name VALUES (value_1, value_2, ...);")

In this code:

  • INSERT INTO is the command used to insert data into the table.
  • table_name is the name of the table the data is being inserted into.
  • value_1 and value_2 are the values being inserted into the table.

Once the table has been created and the data has been inserted, the user can then query the table.

cursor = conn.execute("SELECT * FROM table_name;")
for row in cursor:
    print(row)

In this code:

  • SELECT is the command used to query the table.
  • table_name is the name of the table being queried.
  • cursor is an object used to iterate over the rows in the query result.
  • row is an object containing the data from each row in the query result.

The output of this code will be the data from the table:

('value_1', 'value_2', ...)
('value_1', 'value_2', ...)
...
