That is a nice piece of code,

I cracked the idea of the shift; problem, my final problem is still
how to convert

   my @row = $sth->fetchrow_array;
   $$StartDate = $row[0];
   $$EndDate = $row[1];
   $sth->finish()

into python code as i'm not sure what $$ means

according to a quick google, fetchrow_array is equivalent to Python's fetchone (read one row from the database into a sequence object), so the above is simply:

    row = cursor.fetchone()
    start_date = row[0]
    end_date = row[1]

in Python. if you know for sure that the SQL statement only fetches two columns, you can simply do

    start_date, end_date = cursor.fetchone()
