Postgres Psycopg2 Create Table

Question

i´m new to Postgres and Python. I´m trying to create a simple user table but i don´t know why it isn´t creating. The error message doesn´t appear,

    #!/usr/bin/python
    import psycopg2

    try:
        conn = psycopg2.connect(database = "projetofinal", user = "postgres", password = "admin", host = "localhost", port = "5432")
    except:
        print("I am unable to connect to the database") 

    cur = conn.cursor()
    try:
        cur.execute("CREATE TABLE test (id serial PRIMARY KEY, num integer, data varchar);")
    except:
        print("I can't drop our test database!")

    conn.close()
    cur.close()

You are forgetting to commit to the database!

import psycopg2

try:
    conn = psycopg2.connect(database = "projetofinal", user = "postgres", password = "admin", host = "localhost", port = "5432")
except:
    print("I am unable to connect to the database") 

cur = conn.cursor()
try:
    cur.execute("CREATE TABLE test (id serial PRIMARY KEY, num integer, data varchar);")
except:
    print("I can't drop our test database!")

conn.commit() # <--- makes sure the change is shown in the database
conn.close()
cur.close()
