I presume you meant this for the tutor list.  I don't have any answers 
for the question.

Dear tutors

To elaborate on my above question, I mean: Which database (which a Python
program can access) allows a record to have not just simple fields but also
fields that are variable-length lists?

For my application, records in one database table might have 1 list, those
in another have,  say, 4. Each list has a variable number of integers, no
list contains embedded lists.

The purpose of asking this question is to know which database to learn.

Before asking this question, I looked at Alan Gauld's SQLite
tutorial<http://www.alan-g.me.uk/tutor/tutdbms.htm>and the list
of data types in W3school's SQL
tute<http://www.w3schools.com/sql/sql_datatypes.asp>,
plus a few Google searches.
