I'd like to use placeholders as seen in this example:
cursor.execute ("""
UPDATE animal SET name = %s
WHERE name = %s
""", ("snake", "turtle"))
Except I'd like to have the query be its own variable as I need to insert a query into multiple databases, as in:
query = """UPDATE animal SET name = %s
WHERE name = %s
""", ("snake", "turtle"))
cursor.execute(query)
cursor2.execute(query)
cursor3.execute(query)
What would be the proper syntax for doing something like this?
