Beautiful Soup: 'ResultSet' object has no attribute 'find_all'?

Question

I am trying to scrape a simple table using Beautiful Soup. Here is my code:

import requests
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup

url = \'https://gist.githubusercon         


        

Answer 1

The table variable contains an array. You would need to call find_all on its members (even though you know it's an array with only one member), not on the entire thing.

>>> type(table)

>>> type(table[0])

>>> len(table[0].find_all('tr'))
6
>>>
