Your, understanding mostly correct but just clarify:
connection.query(sql,value):
- The query string is sent directly to the MySQL server.
- Values are interpolated locally before sending the full query to MySQL.
- Each call is independent; MySQL does not cache or reuse queries.
- Not protected from SQL injection unless manually handled properly.
connection.execute(sql,value):
- MySQL itself prepares the statement (not just locally).
- It sends the query structure first and then parameters separately.
- It prevents SQL injection.
- MySQL caches the prepared statement for reuse within the session.
So, B1 function is the most efficient when running the same query multiple times because connection.prepare sends a single query to MySQL to create a prepared statement and also close after execute query.
B2 function is wasteful because it prepares the statement twice.
B3 function is simple but less efficient than B1 for repeated queries.
