For Loop to Concatenate SQL results












0














I am trying to create a function that takes a list, 'teams', runs a SQL query retrieving results for each team using a for loop, returns the results to their respective fields in a dataframe, and then concatenates the data side-by-side. So ideally the results would look something like this:



enter image description here



The code I have below produces an error: "'list' object has no attribute 'concat'". Can someone please advise how I can achieve my desired output?



Thanks!



teams = ['Chicago','Orlando','Miami','New York']

class Team:
Date = datetime(1900,1,1)
Pts_Scored = 0

def myfunct(conn, teams):
curr = conn.cursor()
pts_scored =

for t in teams:
curr.execute("select date, pts_scored from db.teams where teams ='"+t+"'")
for i in curr:
point_hist = Team()
point_hist.Date = i[1]
point_hist.Pts_Scored = i[2]
pts_scored.concat(point_hist)

    A list doesn't have a concat method, but it does have an append method :-)

  • Agree but to my knowledge the append would merge the results vertically instead of horizontally?

  • im not familiar with python. but in sql I can create the query vertical and then use PIVOT to convert it to horizontal format.

    @Tony that doesn't make any sense. list objects don't have dimensions.

pts_scored should be a dictionary whose keys are the dates. The values should be another dictionary whose keys are team names and values are the scores.



def myfunct(conn, teams):
curr = conn.cursor()
pts_scored = {}

curr.execute("select date, pts_scored, teams from db.teams")
for i in curr:
if i['teams'] in teams:
if i['date'] not in pts_scored:
pts_scores[i['date']] = {}
point_hist[i['date']][i['teams'] = i['pts_scored']


You can then use a nested loop to print the table:



# print heading
for team in teams:
print("Date", team, end='')
print("")
# print results
for date, results in point_hist.items():
for team in teams
print(date, results[team], end='')
print("")
