Postgresql – TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not subscriptable while using fetchone()

cur.execute(""" 
            CREATE TEMPORARY VIEW bobby_view AS
            SELECT heading1, heading2
            FROM bobby 
            WHERE heading2 = %s; """, (variable,))


            cur.execute("""
            SELECT d1.heading1
            FROM bobby_view d1
            WHERE d1.heading1 >= ALL (
                SELECT d2.heading1
                FROM bobby_view d2);
            """) 
            
            answer = cur.fetchone()[0]

This produces the error:

TypeError: ‘NoneType’ object is not subscriptable

This is the structure of my code. Variable was an integer entered as a parameter to a function and it has been casted as a string prior to the above code.

The second block of code finds the heading1 data that is the highest. I’ve tested this on its own and I am fairly confident it works. Because of this, I think the error comes from variable not being used in the view properly. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

    you can refer the documentation here

    fetchone returns the next row of a query result set and returns a single sequence, or None if no more rows are available, so if you are fetching the last row the error will occur. Try something like this,

    answer = cur.fetchone()
while answer is not None:
  print(answer)
  answer = cur.fetchone()

    Try:

    cur.execute("""
        SELECT d1.heading1
        FROM bobby_view d1
        WHERE d1.heading1 >= ALL (
            SELECT d2.heading1
            FROM bobby_view d2);
        """) 
        
        answer = cur.fetchone()
        answer = answer[0] of answer else 'default'
