# Unit 7b: Processing Data from the Internet (Bonus Material)

## Learning Objectives

In this unit, we'll build upon our ability to process data from the Internet by focusing on scraping and processing HTML pages.

> NOTE: this is a follow-on for [Unit 7](/intro-to-python/units/unit-7.md), so you should do that first

## Discussions and Notes

* Processing HTML-formatted data:
  * [The `beautifulsoup` Package](/intro-to-python/notes/python/packages/beautifulsoup.md)
* Automated Web Browsing (a.k.a. "scraping"):
  * [The `selenium` Package](/intro-to-python/notes/python/packages/selenium.md)
