Help adding a loop inside a loop
#1
Hello,

I have my virtual assistant's code which is in a while true loop & runs fine, but I want to add a loop inside my virtual assistant's while loop for my checkForReminders() function which scans through an sqlite table to see if any set reminders match the current date and time (if they do a popup opens and if not it should keep scanning until it finds a matching reminder).

Is there any way to do this successfully?

Thanks in advance.

checkForReminders.py
def checkForReminders():
    #Connect to the database
    connection = sqlite3.connect(MainDatabase)
    cursor = connection.cursor()
    #Get Reminders where their dates & times match today's date & time
    cursor.execute("SELECT Reminder FROM Reminders WHERE Date = ? AND Time = ?",(currentdate, currentTime))
    Results = cursor.fetchall()
    connection.commit()
    connection.close()

    if (Results == []):
        return
    else:
        reminderPopup(Results)
My Virtual Assistants Code:
