"""
SPARQL Query using :meth:`rdflib.graph.Graph.query`

The method returns a :class:`~rdflib.query.Result`, iterating over
this yields :class:`~rdflib.query.ResultRow` objects

The variable bindings can be accessed as attributes of the row objects
For variable names that are not valid python identifiers, dict access
(i.e. with ``row[var] / __getitem__``) is also possible.

:attr:`~rdflib.query.Result.vars` contains the variables
