I live in a very calm area, but soon realized that the neighborhood is not really the best when it comes to eating outside. So, I decided to try to analyze review data from the web to find out which area is most compelling for me and other foodies. I scraped online reviews, cleaned the data and then visualized it on a map, showing the average rating of restaurants in different areas in Munich.</p>http://www.gabriel-berardi.com/blog/data/2020-03-01-scrape-bookshop-with-beautifulsoup/Sun, 01 Mar 2020 00:00:00 +0000http://www.gabriel-berardi.com/blog/data/2020-03-01-scrape-bookshop-with-beautifulsoup/<p>Web Scraping is the automated process of extracting data from websites. This is commonly done by retrieving the HTML code of a website through a request and then extracting the information hidden in the HTML code programmatically. This is especially useful when there is no convenient API available to you!</p> <p>There has been a lot of discussion going on about the legality and ethics of Web Scraping, which I do not want to get into in this article. You can find a lot of information on this online.</p>
