Assertions and Reasons Competency
Assertion. A database connection object controls the connection to a
26 database.
Reason. A connection object represents a unique session with a database,
connected from within a script/program.
Assertion. A database cursor receives all the records retrieved as per the Competency
query.
27
Reason. A resultset refers to the records in the database cursor and allows
processing of individual records in it.
Assertion. The database cursor and resultset have the same data yet they Competency
are different.
28
Reason. The database cursor is a control structure and the resultset is a
logical set of records.
Assertion. One by one the records can be fetched from the database Competency
directly through the database connection.
29
Reason. The database query results into a set of records known as the
resultset.
Assertion. MySqldb is an interface for connecting to a MySql database Competency
30 servers from python.
