 | Re: Image crawler You could open the page via urllib2 read the source, and look for image extensions. Regex and plan old slicing could do it. You could also parse for image tags. The html parse lib that came with the standard library could help. |
 | You also need some error checking, it's good practice. Example: [code] rraise = raw_input("Do you really want to raise? y/n ') if rraise == 'y': bet += 1 elif rraise == 'n': pass else: print "y or n please..." return bet[/code] |

| | This looks similar to jcao219's solution. The difrence is the if/elif/else statments. I included this to show the importants of error handling. If the user entered "no" or "something stupid" as the input, the else statement would catch it. You could also handle errors with try/except statements also. [code] import …  |
The End.
