Why does SQLLite return a value with quotes?

Question

Python

Good day I use SQLLite, I request data like this:

connection = sqlite3.connect(DB_NAME)
curs = connection.cursor()
curs.execute("SELECT ticker FROM tokens")
symbol_db = curs.fetchall()
print(symbol_db[2])

As a result I get

('Alex',)('Peter',)('Mina',)

but why does he send me the value inside (',)
I need to get the pure value of Alex, Petr, Mina - without these brackets

Answer 1

Instead use this:print(symbol_db[2])

for s in symbol_db:
    print(s[2])

Answer 2

because fetchall() will return you a list of tuples
