Web Scraping, Merging two lists and getting data from various dates? - AgileAVS - Feb-07-2020

fhand = urllib.request.urlopen('https://www.sharesansar.com/today-share-price')
html = fhand
soup = BeautifulSoup(html, 'lxml')
for td_tag1 in soup.select('td:nth-child(2)'):
data2=td_tag1.text
print('Company Name:',data2)
for td_tag1 in soup.select('td:nth-child(7)'):
data7=td_tag1.text
print('Closing Price:',data7)Hello guys, I am fairly new to python and this is the code that I have written to extract related to stock market from the website:https://www.sharesansar.com/today-share-price for which I have already taken their permission. The above code prints the company name and closing price separately. So here are my challenges.
1. How do I combine these in a way that the company name would be listed or joint together with its respective closing price?
2. There are various prices such as for example price for today or from yesterday. I did some google on the topic and I found out that it could be done through DATES? Like, there is a calendar in their website through which we can extract data from various dates, but how do I do it?
