Somebody else told you not to use "input", choose another name

No, the old error was """sqlite3.ProgrammingError: Incorrect number of
bindings supplied. The current statement uses 4, and there are 1
supplied.""" That's quite different.
Secondly you have already been told about the difference between row

(2) the sequence of values that will be used to replace the ?s in the
SQL. So just lose the *, OK?
