Week 3

In the hack-a-page part of this assignment, I chose to make myself the head coach of my favorite football team. I went to the | Minnesota Vikings Coaching Page in Chrome browser and opened the develop tools in order to do so. I copied the link to the picture in my wiki profile and pasted this as the source of the image for the team's head coach. I then changed the name of the coach to my name, and also added "Future 2018 Super Bowl Champions" to the description of my position.

In the second part of this weeks assignment, the pages Introduction to the Command Line, Dynamic Text Processing and The Web from the Command Line were utilized throughout the complete the tasks. In order to access the webpage, my partner and I utilized the format on the The Web from the Command Line page for how to post and submit data into parts of a webpage and return the HTML. By looking at the developer tools for the [1] page, we were able to determine the arguments that needed to be included for the command. We compared our returned HTML in the terminal with that in the return page's developer tools to ensure that our code was correct.

Once the webpage command was perfected in the command terminal, we parsed through the links and identifiers in the returned HTML. By using the browser to look up all of the things included in the HTML of the returned page, we came up with the lists above, along with a description of each element. For this section, my partner Dina Bashour and I worked together in person to split up the work in order to maximize efficiency.

To get just the answers out of the returned HTML text from the command, we referenced the material covered in the Dynamic Text Processing page. We utilized the deletion capability to delete all of the lines of text that came before and after the section of the HTML that contained our answers. We then used a more sophisticated syntax to delete any text that was in between the < and > symbols. This left just the text of the answers.
