Hi,

I am trying to connect MySql using python, but it's showing error.

Error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/ai/Documents/Database/mysql.py", line 1, in <module>
    import mysql.connector
  File "/home/ai/Documents/Database/mysql.py", line 1, in <module>
    import mysql.connector
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'mysql.connector'; 'mysql' is not a package

I try to install pip3 mysql.connector also but after installing it's now working and showing same error.

I would guess that's because Python is trying to import mysql, which is your file name, so I think it's trying to import itself. If you change the name of your file, you should be fine. Be careful of overriding your imports with local file names :)
