I have recently began to explore the Nim programming language and I was wondering how to connect to a SQLite database. After reading the relevant section of the manual, my confusion has not diminished. If someone would be kind enough to provide a simple example, I would appreciate it.
Thanks.

Nim latest source code provide a good example. Copy the example here:
import db_sqlite, math
let theDb = open("mytest.db", nil, nil, nil) # Open mytest.db
theDb.exec(sql"Drop table if exists myTestTbl")
# Create table
theDb.exec(sql("""create table myTestTbl (
Id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY,
Name VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL,
i INT(11),
f DECIMAL(18,10))"""))
# Insert
theDb.exec(sql"BEGIN")
for i in 1..1000:
theDb.exec(sql"INSERT INTO myTestTbl (name,i,f) VALUES (?,?,?)",
"Item#" & $i, i, sqrt(i.float))
theDb.exec(sql"COMMIT")
# Select
for x in theDb.fastRows(sql"select * from myTestTbl"):
echo x
let id = theDb.tryInsertId(sql"INSERT INTO myTestTbl (name,i,f) VALUES (?,?,?)",
"Item#1001", 1001, sqrt(1001.0))
echo "Inserted item: ", theDb.getValue(sql"SELECT name FROM myTestTbl WHERE id=?", id)
theDb.close()
