I remember my first web scrapping trial. It was something simple but I couldn't make it work. SO was useless. No one could help. I put it aside for months.
One day I felt a desire to try again. And worked. I was so happy. The reason it worked this time was that I was looking for what I've got back from each function call. Print, print, a lot of prints. So I scraped my government website. For a public data but it was spread on multiple web pages. Bad design.
I don't write code often. Only when I need something. That's not good for my coding skills but If I have no motivation, nothing goes well. It's essential to aim a target but it's more important to enjoy all of this. To have fun.
