Hello guys,
Since sqlite gives an error if you try to create a table that's already there,
how do I test if a table is already present?
for example in
def database(info):
import sqlite3
connection = sqlite3.connect("test.db")
cursor = connection.cursor()
if table not in test.db: #with this being my test that I'm not sure how to
implement
cursor.execute(""" CREATE TABLE stuff (id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY, name
TEXT)""")
cursor.execute("""INSERT INTO stuff VALUES (null, ?)""",(info))
cursor.commit()
cursor.close()
connection.close()
How would I properly test if table not in test.db: ? Is it something as simple
as having a method of cursor check it for me, or should I just create my table
in the beginning of my code(outside of this function) and leave it out of the
function all together, so I can just have my function focusing on inserting
data?
Uhm, in the immediate example I'm using, this is a function, thats inside of a
function used by a tkinter button, a save button if you will. So I want it to
save whatever is in the entry widget to the database. Keeping this in mind, am
I
going about it the wrong way? Should I be trying to save a different way?

What is it about you... that intrigues me so?
