Web scraping

Web scraping is a technique to extract data from different websites, manipulate the data into a structured format, and then save the data to local files for consumption and reporting. We've all probably done some form of web scraping in the past even though we may not have known it at the time.  

With help of R language or python, we can read the web data.

  1. Hi there. This post is a blatant copy-and-paste of someone else's work (i.e. plagiarism). All you did was combine two of Pinal Dave's posts ( https://blog.sqlauthority.com/2008/07/10/sql-server-2008-introduction-to-sparse-columns/ and https://blog.sqlauthority.com/2008/07/14/sql-server-2008-introduction-to-sparse-columns-part-2/ ) and made a few changes to the wording and example code, and added 2 limitations.

    Please either delete this post, or at the very least provide proper attribution AND point out any changes you made (such as the 2 new limitations, and it looks like 2 were removed)

If you have any doubt, please let me know.
