Web Scraping in Python by BeautifulSoup, Scrapy & Selenium

Web scrapingis the practice of gathering data from the internet automatically by a computer program without using API and web browser. There are some other terms including screen scraping, web harvesting, web crawling, data mining all are including in web scraping.

Instead of copy-pasting important data by a human from a web browser visiting a website, web scraping can automate the process. Web scraping is now very important for a data scientist. A data scientist analysis data collected from various media. Now, most of the data come from different websites. As Python programming is very popular for harvesting data, many data scientist use Python programming to solve that.

If we analyze the business of Google, we will see Google initially started as a search engine. Their search engine was initially built using Python programming. Even in a study, different types of message from twitter, facebook, blogs were scraped to construct a data set which was used to build a predictive model. So knowing how to use Python to scrape web data is an important skill one has to know.
