Good advice in the long term. However, one can't learn *everything* at once. Cecil, use SQLAlchemy and you will have a firm foundation that will not hold you back from learning SQL at some future point; on the other hand, you will be using a library that makes it *much* more sensible to work with database structures and queries from yuor Python code. The same is not necessarily true of a lot of database APIs; they will frequently simplify to the point of obscuring your understanding of the database, and learning SQL later is hindered to that extent. SQLAlchemy, though, does not have that problem. > SQLAlchemy -> Database :: Python -> Assembly Language.
