    In Python, you can interact with SQL databases using various libraries.

    One of the most commonly


    used libraries for this purpose is `sqlite3`, which is a built-in library in Python and provides a simple
    way to work with SQLite databases. Addi onally, there are third-party libraries like `SQLAlchemy` and
    `pymysql` for interac ng with different types of SQL databases such as MySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle,
    etc.

    Here's a brief explana on of how you can use `sqlite3` to interact with an SQLite database in Python:

    1. **Connec ng to a Database:**

    To connect to an SQLite database, you use the `connect()` func on from the `sqlite3` module,
    specifying the path to the database file. If the file does not exist, it will be created.

    ```python

    import sqlite3

    # Connect to the database (creates a new database if not exists)

    connec on = sqlite3.connect('example.db')

    ```

    2. **Crea ng a Cursor:**

    Once connected, you need to create a cursor object using the `cursor()` method of the connec on
    object. The cursor is used to execute SQL commands and manage the results.

    ```python

    # Create a cursor object

    cursor = connec on.cursor()

    ```

    3. **Execu ng SQL Commands:**

    You can execute SQL commands using the `execute()` method of the cursor object. You can execute
    commands like crea ng tables, inser ng data, upda ng data, dele ng data, etc.

    ```python

    # Create a table

    cursor.execute('''CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS Employees (

    EmployeeID INT PRIMARY KEY,

    LastName VARCHAR(50),

    FirstName VARCHAR(50),

    Department VARCHAR(50)

    )''')

    # Insert data into the table

    cursor.execute("INSERT INTO Employees VALUES (1, 'Doe', 'John', 'IT')")

    # Commit the transac on

    connec on.commit()

    ```

    4. **Fetching Data:**

    You can fetch data from the database using methods like `fetchone()`, `fetchall()`, or by itera ng
    over the cursor object.

    ```python

    # Fetch data from the table

    cursor.execute("SELECT * FROM Employees WHERE Department = 'IT'")

    rows = cursor.fetchall()

    for row in rows:

    print(row)

    ```

    5. **Closing the Connec on:**

    Once you're done working with the database, it's important to close the connec on to release the
    database resources.

    ```python

    # Close the connec on

    connec on.close()

    ```

    This is a basic overview of using `sqlite3` in Python. Depending on the library you choose, the syntax
    and methods may vary slightly, but the underlying principles remain similar.
