Looking to make a price checking script - 6010fd12 - Feb-02-2022 Spent 10 hours watching some python tutorials so I'm familiar with the very basics of python. I'm looking to make a program with python that:
I'm not asking to be spoon-fed any information, in fact I want to do my own research but currently need a push in the right direction. I've looked into web scraping tutorials with BeautifulSoup but it seems like(to me at least) BS4 is only useful for parsing through html for specific code (which would be useful for the first part of my program) but I don't understand how I can navigate through a website with python.
