Part 1: Yahoo Finance
My assigned stock ticker in the ClassList.csv file is KO, for The Coca Cola Company. I used
‘yfinance’ and ‘mplfinance’ Python packages to download the last year of price information
for KO stock and plotted the data as a candlestick plot, with a clear title and axis labels.
Figure 1 below displays the graph produced by my Python code.

Part 2: PDF Scraping
I used ‘tabula-py’ to read the table on the first page of the provided GPD.pdf report, and
stored the information in a Pandas data frame. The data frame was then converted to excel to
be displayed in this report, as is shown below in Table 1.

Part 3: Crypto Punk Web Scraping
I used ‘requests’ and ‘BeatifulSoup’ to extract the attributes of a specific CryptoPunk.
CryptoPunk #25, identified from the ClassList.csv file, possesses one attribute: 'Wild White
Hair'. The script made a HTTP GET request to the CryptoPunk's detail page and parsed the
HTML content to locate and extract the attribute information.
Attributes of CryptoPunk #25: ['1 attributes', 'Wild White Hair']
