S2 Week 5 Lab

As is the way with web scraping, the site that we scraped is now no longer in the same format, so some examples in the original lab don't work. There are still some useful nuggets there, including on how to do web scraping ethically and on the BeautifulSoup package.

The lab session  (the last one in FDS)  will be a brief introduction to web scraping. Work with a partner through the Jupyter notebook S2 Week 05: Getting data and web scraping, which is available from this Github repository: https://github.com/Inf2-FDS/FDS-S2-05-web-scraping.git

The instruction sheet from S1 week 1 (see Labs section) still works - just swap in the name of the repository above instead of the one specified in the sheet.
