Web Scraping two approaches: first with Requests and BeautifulSoup libraries and second with Request-HTML library

I completed the following tutorials on how to manually scrape the website using two approaches: 1) Using Requests and BeautifulSoup libraries approach. • The first tutorial “How to Scrape Stock Prices from Yahoo Finance with Python” by John Watson Rooney was on how to scrape financial data from Yahoo Finance website by using Requests and Beautifulsoup Libraries and saving JSON data to the file. The length of the tutorial is 0:20 total video hours.

He has shown that Request-HTML library gives a definite number of advantages over the first approach: * Async support examples. * JavaScript support like grab text that is dynamically generated by JavaScript. and many other support functionalities available in this library. The length of the tutorial is 56:26 total video hours.

Rooney where I learned how to use Async/Await to speed up requests made to the server(s). The length of the tutorial is 00:09 total video hours.
