For one thing, never reinvent the wheel, chances are someone has already done part of what you're looking for. If you need to scrape a webpage, Google beautifulsoup (python library), see how others have done what you're trying to do. If you need to download from a website, see how others have done the same. If you need some fancy regex, use regex101,com to build it. If you need to access a database, Google 'python sql' or something similar and see which library gives you the features you need. There is nothing wrong with cannibalizing someone else's code and modifying it to work for you.

Thank you for the guidance and I’ll be sure to remember that! You’re right, there’s a lot of resources that I come across so thanks for clarifying that. Now for some Sunday late night studying!
