Calculator Python from Satoshis to Dollars with Scraping [part 2]
Scraping, is nothing more than extracting data from the network and we will do it with python.
These entries are more than anything to calculate how much we win in Mining or playing some game to see if it is worth it.
Here in Venezuela with the Dolar almost 4mil Bolivares if it is worth a small wage barely reaches a Dollar a Day, also everything is expensive.
Note: If you need other currencies do not hesitate to comment . For example: Colombian Pesos, Chilean or Digital Coins as litecoin, steem, etherum or dogecoin, soon the same will add.
I do not want to recharge, priority add steem in the next entry
Today we are going to continue with the second part of BTC calculator and other currencies to Dolar, Euros and Bolívares.
I have been and good as a second entry I will add a bit of SCRAPING with Python, this is nothing more than to extract data Of the pages.
Later we will put together a database with a lot of statistical data, but for now we are going to have the calculator in python extract the values of the Dollar Price in DolarToday, Euro price of DolarToday and Price of Bitcoin for now We are going to extract it from the economist.
So go to work, as an introduction to the code, remember that. I will not explain directly in the post that makes each line for that have my blog that I leave at the end, and if they need a quick query can comment and I will respond Or some other colleague here are several, if possible the same day.
Here the Code:
In the first Image we look for the value of the BTC in Dollars, in the page eleonomista since it is updated daily.
In the Second Image we look for the value of the Dollar and the Euro for Bolivares, in the twitter page DolarToday since it is updated daily, if you need other currencies do not hesitate to Comment.
I was tempted to use APIs but to start I want to give them something that they understand:
So far this entry, for the next we will make a small database to take a history.
May God bless you! Salvation is found in no one else! God has given no other name under heaven by which we can be saved. Acts 4-12 NTV
The most readable code can be downloaded from my blog although soon I will place it in Github, greetings:
