[Tutor] How to extract information from a stock website

[shey crompton]

I can't help with the exact coding of what you request, but I do recall
something along the lines of a program which pulls stock market quotes off a
website one either The Vaults of Parnassus (http://www.vex.net/parnassus/),
or Useless Python (www.uselesspython.com). I'm probably wrong, but it's
worth a look. :-)

Subject:	[Tutor] How to extract information from a stock website

 Hi. I'm new to Python, and i've read that Python is
capable of extracting information such as latest stock
prices off the web. Can anyone tell me how i can
achieve this. I was thinking of building a website
that uses this information to help manage my stock
portfolios. Also, if i want to create a stand alone
Windows program that does this portfolio management,
can i still use Python to extract information as the
back-end of the software ? Any help appreciated. Thank
you
