Need help retrieving boolean value using MySQLdb

[daniel powell]

I have code written in python that accesses a Mysql database via the Mysqldb library. I can succesfully connect to the database and execute a query which then returns a value representing how many rows in the table matched the query requirments. What I can't seem to figure out is how to return the actuall value of the boolean feild I'm trying to access. Here is my code snippet.

import MySQLdb

db = MySQLdb.connect(host="localhost", user="pi", passwd="raspberry", db="django_website_db")
cur = db.cursor()

while (1):

update_kill = cur.execute("SELECT preprogramUpdate FROM website_preprogram WHERE preprogramNumber= 3")
rows = cur.fetchall()
for row in rows:
print row[0]

print update_kill

So to reiterate, I'm trying to return the actuall value of "preprogramUpdate" in my query.....

Thanks in advance for any help!
