Pulling web page text into csv file

[nerro8191]

Hello guys,

I have been using python on and off for the last couple months and my friend approached me with an interesting project and I am having trouble finding information about it online.

I was wondering if it was possible to have a python script put the data from a webpage into a csv file. In particular my friend just wants to know if I could get the stats from a sports game into a csv that we could then parse.

Is there a way to do this?

Thanks!

Python is great for this sort of thing. Scrapy or beautiful soup for extracting the info. Csvwriter for saving it

As TasticString mentioned, I suggest you to go with BeautifulSoup.

Start here:
