Lesser-known Pandas tricks (2019)
Something I love about pandas is that often you can pass a URL in place of a file name.<p>The other day I needed to scrape data from a table on a webpage. Thinking about traversing the DOM and building up an array was already giving me a headache. Thankfully pandas has the “read_html” function. Getting a list of dataframes for each table on the page was as easy as:<p><pre><code>  dfs = pd.read_html(url)</code></pre>
