title: fetchone() is setting int variable to tuple
body: <p>I have a project with Python 2.7 and SQLite3.</p>
  
  <p>I am trying to store an integer variable in an SQLite3 database column, and then later be able to set a variable to the value of the SQLite column.</p>
  
  <p>The connection is fine, the column exists, and it is type "int".</p>
  
  <p>I am using this code to pull the data:</p>
  
  <pre><code>    Trailcrest.fish_score = c.execute("SELECT fish_score FROM roster WHERE agentnumber = ?;", (AN,) ).fetchone()
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The "AN" variable I'm calling is provided as an argument when the def this code is contained in is called.</p>
  
  <p>However, when I look at the Trailcrest.fish_score variable, while the data has been written to it, it has been written as a tuple, and not as an integer. The variable originally contained an integer. </p>
  
  <p>What is going on? How can I fix it? (I'm assuming I need to do some casting, but I'm not sure.)</p>
