Ive been learning to interact with databases using python and i was looking for ways to return a SELECT  query result in a plain format. what i mean by plain format is :

name         number        address
Fred Smith   2125553243     1 main st 

All the pratices ive done return the results in tuples or tuples within tuples.
(('fred smith','2125553243','1 main st'))

I saw some examples on activestate that use the dbcp module and import the pp ( pretty print ) function and the results from the examples were in the format i was looking for. just straight strings in a tabular format. no tuples.
