The main problem with using the Python sqlite select statement to select data is that it does not support the WHERE clause. This means that you cannot filter your data in any way.
SELECT * FROM table WHERE column = value
This code line is written in SQL.
SELECT * FROM table means that all columns from the table will be selected.
WHERE column = value means that only rows where the value in the column is equal to the given value will be selected.
