Hi Andrew,
I think you'll find that you still have to master SQL and it's
nonclementure as Python only provides a DB-API and you need to know the
SQL in order to use the API to send your queries etc.
I've recently started using it and although at first SQL seems daunting
you do get the hang of it after time - like most languages really.If you
need specific help get in touch and I'll help were I can.
