In the namedtuple documentation there's an example:-

    EmployeeRecord = namedtuple('EmployeeRecord', 'name, age, title, 
department, paygrade')

    import sqlite3
    conn = sqlite3.connect('/companydata')
    cursor = conn.cursor()
    cursor.execute('SELECT name, age, title, department, paygrade FROM 
employees')
    for emp in map(EmployeeRecord._make, cursor.fetchall()):
        print emp.name, emp.title

(I've deleted the csv bit)

Surely having to match up the "name, age, title, department,
paygrade" between the tuple and the database can be automated, the
example is rather pointless otherwise.  At the very least one should
use the same variable instance for both, but it should be possible to
get the tuple names from the database.
