Websites can contain a very large amount of invaluable data stock, prices and product details.
If you wanted to access this information you either have to use whatever format the website uses or copy and paste the information manually into a new document.
This can be pretty tedious when you want to extract a lot of information from a website here's where web scraping can help.

Definition

Scraping simply refers to the extraction of data from a website.
This information is collected and then export into a format that is more useful to the user.
