<dd><p>Allows Python code to execute PostgreSQL command in a database session.
Cursors are created by the <a class="reference internal" href="connection.html#connection.cursor" title="connection.cursor"><tt class="xref py py-obj docutils literal"><span class="pre">connection.cursor()</span></tt></a> method: they are
bound to the connection for the entire lifetime and all the commands are
executed in the context of the database session wrapped by the connection.</p>
<p>Cursors created from the same connection are not isolated, i.e., any
changes done to the database by a cursor are immediately visible by the
other cursors. Cursors created from different connections can or can not
be isolated, depending on the connections’ <a class="reference internal" href="usage.html#transactions-control"><em>isolation level</em></a>.

<p>Cursors are <em>not</em> thread safe: a multithread application can create
many cursors from the same connection and should use each cursor from
a single thread. See <a class="reference internal" href="usage.html#thread-safety"><em>Thread and process safety</em></a> for details.</p>
