I am trying to create a string this way:
insertion = "INSERT INTO mytable(week %s) VALUES (\%s, \%s)" % osStringI
not enough arguments for format string
Where the first %s is going to be substitute by the variable osStringI,
but the other two VALUES (\%s, \%s), should be created as literals '%s'.
If you double the % sign it is treated as a percent character.
"INSERT INTO mytable(week %s) VALUES (%%s, %%s)"
But do you really want to do it this way?
Wouldn't it be better to use the SQLite parameter insertion syntax
and do it all at the execute stage?
cur.execute("INSERT INTO mytable(week ?) VALUES (?, ?)", val1,val2,val3)
just a thought,
