To connect to MySQL using Python, you need to use a library such asmysql.connector.

The following example code can be used to connect to a MySQL database and execute a query:

import mysql.connectormydb = mysql.connector.connect(  host="localhost",  user="user",  passwd="password")mycursor = mydb.cursor()mycursor.execute("SELECT * FROM customers")myresult = mycursor.fetchall()for x in myresult:  print(x)

The output of the above code would be a list of all rows in the customers table.

The code consists of the following parts:

1. import mysql.connector: This imports the mysql.connector library, which is used to connect to MySQL.

2. mydb = mysql.connector.connect(host="localhost", user="user", passwd="password"): This creates a connection to the MySQL database. The host, user, and passwd parameters are used to specify the connection details.

3. mycursor = mydb.cursor(): This creates a cursor object, which is used to execute queries.

4. mycursor.execute("SELECT * FROM customers"): This executes the query to select all rows from the customers table.

5. myresult = mycursor.fetchall(): This fetches all the results from the query.

6. for x in myresult: print(x): This prints out the results of the query.
