Hi, I'm just learning Python....thanks in advance...
Do you get out of this loop?
Problem: When I type 'exit' (no quotes) the program doesn't quit the loop...it
actually attemps to find entries that containt the 'exit' string.
Desired behavior: when I type 'exit' the program should quit.
def search():
searchWhat = ""
while searchWhat != 'exit':
searchWhat = "%%%s%%" % raw_input ('Search for : ')
cursor.execute("select * from TABLE where FIELD like %s", (searchWhat))
result = cursor.fetchall()
print
'+------------------------------------------------------------------+'
print '| # | Name | LastName
|'
print
'+------------------------------------------------------------------+'
for record in result:
print ' ', record[0], ' : ', record[1], ' ==> ',
record[2]
print
'+------------------------------------------------------------------+'
#end for statement, end of search
