<li><p>Locate your Oracle Database username and password, and the database
connection string. The connection string is commonly of the format
<code>hostname/servicename</code>, using the hostname where the database is
running, and the service name of the Oracle Database instance.</p>
<p>Substitute your username, password and connection string in the
code. For downloaded examples, put these in <a
href="https://github.com/oracle/python-cx_Oracle/tree/master/samples/SampleEnv.py"
><code>SampleEnv.py</code></a> and <a
href="https://github.com/oracle/python-cx_Oracle/blob/master/samples/sql/SampleEnv.sql"
><code>SampleEnv.sql</code></a>, and then follow <a
href="https://github.com/oracle/python-cx_Oracle/tree/master/samples/README.md"
><code>sample/README</code></a> to create the cx_Oracle sample schema.
