Converts an arbitrary string into something that can be used as a python identifier. Checks for namespace conflicts and conflicts with python and specified reserved words.
def make_python_identifier(string, namespace=None, reserved_words=None,
convert='drop', handle='force'):
"""
Takes an arbitrary string and creates a valid Python identifier.
If the python identifier created is already in the namespace,
or if the identifier is a reserved word in the reserved_words
list, or is a python default reserved word,
adds _1, or if _1 is in the namespace, _2, etc.
Parameters
""" Scraping with xpath
Here's a basic demo on how I scraped a page using xpath to get specific pieces of info.
While I've only accessed a few single pieces of info on the page, xpath can also
get you a list of all the elements that meet a specific path, and will return them as
a list or iterable.
A tool you might like for debugging your xpath expressions is: xpath-helper
