What does this Python/SQL code do?
<p>So if anyone is knowledgeable on Animal Shelter Manager, I'm looking for some help. I'm trying to figure out what each line of code means.. the first is </p>

<p>from animalcontrol.py</p>

<pre><code>def get_animalcontrol_query(dbo):
  return "SELECT ac.*, ac.ID AS ACID, s.SpeciesName, x.Sex AS SexName, " \
    "co.OwnerName AS CallerName, co.HomeTelephone, co.WorkTelephone, co.MobileTelephone, " \
    "o1.OwnerName AS OwnerName, o1.OwnerName AS OwnerName1, o2.OwnerName AS OwnerName2, o3.OwnerName AS OwnerName3, " \
    "o1.OwnerName AS SuspectName, o1.OwnerAddress AS SuspectAddress, o1.OwnerTown AS SuspectTown, o1.OwnerCounty AS SuspectCounty, o1.OwnerPostcode AS SuspectPostcode, " \
    "o1.HomeTelephone AS SuspectHomeTelephone, o1.WorkTelephone AS SuspectWorkTelephone, o1.MobileTelephone AS SuspectMobileTelephone, " \
    "vo.OwnerName AS VictimName, vo.OwnerAddress AS VictimAddress, vo.OwnerTown AS VictimTown, vo.OwnerCounty AS VictimCounty, vo.OwnerPostcode AS VictimPostcode," \
    "vo.HomeTelephone AS VictimHomeTelephone, vo.WorkTelephone AS VictimWorkTelephone, vo.MobileTelephone AS VictimMobileTelephone, " \
    "ti.IncidentName, ci.CompletedName, pl.LocationName " \
    "FROM animalcontrol ac " \
    "LEFT OUTER JOIN species s ON s.ID = ac.SpeciesID " \
    "LEFT OUTER JOIN lksex x ON x.ID = ac.Sex " \
    "LEFT OUTER JOIN owner co ON co.ID = ac.CallerID " \
    "LEFT OUTER JOIN owner o1 ON o1.ID = ac.OwnerID " \
    "LEFT OUTER JOIN owner o2 ON o2.ID = ac.Owner2ID " \
    "LEFT OUTER JOIN owner o3 ON o3.ID = ac.Owner3ID " \
    "LEFT OUTER JOIN owner vo ON vo.ID = ac.VictimID " \
    "LEFT OUTER JOIN pickuplocation pl ON pl.ID = ac.PickupLocationID " \
    "LEFT OUTER JOIN incidenttype ti ON ti.ID = ac.IncidentTypeID " \
    "LEFT OUTER JOIN incidentcompleted ci ON ci.ID = ac.IncidentCompletedID"
</code></pre>

<p>What does <code>return "SELECT ac.*, ac.ID AS ACID,</code> mean.</p>

<p>and if I wanted to differ this code from what it is currently what would I have to change. ei "ac." or "ACID" </p>

<p>I know I will have to change <code>def get_animalcontrol_query(dbo):</code></p>
