This is the third video of Database programming with Python. In this video, we will see how to connect to the Oracle database using the cx_oracle package and insert a record into the table using the execute method. The table has been created in the second video of the tutorial series.

execute method takes in the SQL statement that you want to execute, and optionally you can send the list of data that will replace the bind variables in the SQL statement or a dictionary with the appropriate bind variables names.

Steps performed:
================
Create Connection
Create Cursor
Prepare insert into statement
Execute Statement with execute()
commit/rollback the connection
close the cursor
close the connection

The cx_Oracle is a Python extension module that enables access to Oracle Database. It conforms to the Python database API 2.0 specification with a considerable number of additions and a couple of exclusions.

cx_Oracle 7 has been tested with Python version 2.7, and with versions 3.5 through 3.8. You can use cx_Oracle with Oracle 11.2, 12, 18 and 19 client libraries. Oracle's standard client-server version interoperability allows connection to both older and newer databases. For example, Oracle 19c client libraries can connect to Oracle Database 11.2.
