The Requests Library
The requests
library is a popular Python library for making HTTP requests. It allows you to send HTTP requests to a website's server and retrieve the server's response.
In the context of web scraping, the requests
library can be used to send an HTTP request to a website's server to retrieve the HTML content of a webpage. This is often the first step in the web scraping process, as the HTML content contains all the data that you want to extract.
