cursor error

DEAF_PROBERT_68 — Sun, 15 Feb 2015 19:49:06 GMT

On page 169 of the Programming ArcGIS 10.1 with Python cookbook.

Step 6 says to type this : for row in sorted(cursor):

But if you look at the number 04 which gave the error because PyScripter could not defined cursor ?

I have also type this 04 code into Python window and it showed it doesn't defined cursor is ....

import arcpy.da arcpy.env.workspace ="c:/ArcpyBook/Ch9" arcpy.da.SearchCursor("Schools.shp",("Facility","Name"))    for row in in sorted(cursor):     print("School name: " + row[1])

You have two "in"s: "for row in in sorted(cursor):"

In any case, this is how I usually see and use da cursors:

>>> with arcpy.da.SearchCursor("YOUR_LAYER_HERE",("ID","FID")) as cursor:
...     for row in sorted(cursor):
...         print row

Thank you however, this post was dated back in 2015. Hopefully others can test theirs.

@RachelGomez , the original question had to do with ArcPy cursors and not computer mouse cursors, so checking hardware and mouse and trackpad settings would have no effect.
