It looks like php's implode(sep, seq) is like sep.join(seq) in Python. But this is a lousy way to write database queries. You should use the Python's DB-API interface's execute(statement, parameters) instead. Assuming that paramstyle is 'qmark', I think it ends up looking something like this:
items = query_param.items() keys = [item[0] for item in items] values = [item[1] for item in items] # If the query parameters or the table are under # user control you must take care to validate them assert table in permitted_tables for k in query_param.keys(): assert k in permitted_keys sql = "INSERT INTO %s (%s) values %s" % ( table, ", ".join(keys), ", ".join(["?"] * len(keys)) ) conn.execute(sql, values) now you don't have to worry that you get the quoting of the values absolutely right, since db-api does it for you.
