con = sqlite3.connect('example.db')
cur = con.cursor()

To retrieve data after executing a SELECT statement, either treat the cursor as
an :term:`iterator`, call the cursor's :meth:`~Cursor.fetchone` method to
retrieve a single matching row, or call :meth:`~Cursor.fetchall` to get a list
of the matching rows.
At this point, our database only contains one row::

This example uses the iterator form::
>>> res = cur.execute('SELECT count(rowid) FROM stocks')
>>> print(res.fetchone())
(1,)

The result is a one-item :class:`tuple`:
one row, with one column.
Now, let us insert three more rows of data,
using :meth:`~Cursor.executemany`::

>>> data = [
('2006-03-28', 'BUY', 'IBM', 1000, 45.0),
('2006-04-05', 'BUY', 'MSFT', 1000, 72.0),
('2006-04-06', 'SELL', 'IBM', 500, 53.0),
]
>>> cur.executemany('INSERT INTO stocks VALUES(?, ?, ?, ?)', data)

Then, retrieve the data by iterating over the result of a ``SELECT`` statement::

>>> for row in cur.execute('SELECT * FROM stocks ORDER BY price'):
print(row)
... print(row)

('2006-01-05', 'BUY', 'RHAT', 100, 35.14)
('2006-03-28', 'BUY', 'IBM', 1000, 45.0)

data = [
