Module 5 Assignment: Exploring & Manipulating Data

Module 5: Exploring and Manipulating Data

At the top of image 1 it displays that my code to create the new fGDB file was successful.

The lines after "Iterating over list" is copying the data files to the new fGDB to be used their. The next lines after that begin the cursor search to find cities that have a county seat and their population in 2000. The first 3 cities are listed in image 1 and continue to the bottom of image 3.

I currently do not have a flowchart and plan to finish the last step of lab later this week with Dr. Morgan. (Will update when I have completed.)

Notes:

-Del row needs to be under the loop.

-CreateFileGDB_management creates a new geodatabase

-Search cursors are used to search records and carry out SQL expressions.

-Update cursors are used to make changes to existing records, while insert cursors are used to add new records, delete cursors delete records.
