How do you get python to work with Oracle ... for perl there DBD: and DBI: anything similar in Python? My knowledge of Perl is as good as my knowledge of Python ... /dev/null

Subject: Re: Perl
I tinkered with Perl, but could never really get used to the syntax.
I basically gave up (still maintain familiarity since Perl is very
common) and started using Python. I've grown to enjoy coding in Python
and use it now for all of the system maintenance and monitoring scripts
I write as well as for my web programming work.
I'm not qualified to compare the two languages, but I will say that
Perl's Oracle support is better developed and the CPAN archives are a
very useful thing. In my opinion, Python is a better designed language
and it is perfectly viable for production-level applications in an
Oracle environment.
