Inserting Data Into a PostgreSQL Database With Python
In this tutorial, we will insert data into a PostgreSQL database. While MySQL is perhaps the most popular database system of the day, it is dwarfed in its power and flexibility by PostgreSQL. This tutorial will show how to use a function 'insert' to insert data into a database.
