Why does it give an error with the number of arguments?

Question

Python

There is such a function (I attach the script) and a database created in the program (the script is below). Throws the following error: function takes at most 2 arguments(6 given). Why?

def id_base(cursor):
  cursor.execute("""CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS ids
                      (
                       id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT NOT NULL,
                       surname TEXT,
                       name TEXT,
                       patronymic TEXT,
                       class INTEGER
                       books TEXT
                       )
                   """)
  '''return cursor?'''
def registration(cursor):
    SURNAME = input('Введи фамилию (Например, Иванов): ')
    NAME = input('Как тебя зовут?(Например, Иван): ')
    PATRONYMIC = input('Введи отчество (Например, Иванович: ')
    CLASS = input('В каком классе ты учишься? (Например, 6А) : ')
    cursor.execute('INSERT INTO ids (name, surname, patronymic, class) VALUES (?, ?, ?, ?)', NAME, SURNAME, PATRONYMIC, CLASS)

Answer 1

Because Sqlite accepts a tuple:

cursor.execute('INSERT INTO ids (name, surname, patronymic, class) VALUES (?, ?, ?, ?);', (NAME, SURNAME, PATRONYMIC, CLASS))
