I'd like to know what the right way is to access an item in a row as

cursor=connection.cursor()

NULL)
for row in rows:

If you are dealing with a DB API-compliant module then the return value

of the fetch methods to extract the retrieved data.
Thanks for pointing it out.

I'm trying to use urllib to download web pages with the GET method,

For instance, when searching Amazon for Wargames:

I'm using the APSW wrapper to SQLite, and I'm stuck at how to pass
data from a dictionary to the database which expects an integer:

#TypeError: int argument required

I'm trying to use the APSW package to access a SQLite database, but
can't find how to check if a row exists. I just to read a
tab-separated file, extract a key/value from each line, run SELECT
COUNT(*) to check whether this tuple exists in the SQLite database,
and if not, run an INSERT.

It is - the problem is that cursor.execute doesn't return what you
