I'm reading a text file into an in-memory pysqlite table. When I do a SELECT
on the table, I get a 'u' in front of each returned row eg.
> (u'QB VII',)
> (u'Quackser Fortune Has a Cousin in the Bronx',)
I've checked the data being INSERT'ed into the table and it has no 'u'.
The second problem is that I'm using the LIKE operator to match a pattern
against a string but am getting garbage results. For example, looking for the
characters q='dog' in each string the SELECT statement is as follows:
for row in con.execute("SELECT <column> FROM <table> WHERE <string> LIKE '%q%'
limit 25"):
print row
This doesn't work and I've tried other combinations without luck! Any thoughts
on the correct syntax for the LIKE?
