🔒 how do I not get list index out of range error?

[zenith idol]

So I'm doing exactly what the example code I have been learning from is telling me to do. Why the fuck is it not working?

import requests
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup

url = 'https://google.com'

response = requests.get(url)

content = response.content
soup = BeautifulSoup(content, 'html.parser')
print(soup.title)
print(soup.title.get_text())
print(soup.body)
print(response.status_code)

tables = soup.find_all('table', {'cellpadding':'3'})

table = tables[0]
for td in table.find('tr').find_all('td'):
    print(td.text)```

Is this like some minor syntactical thing I'm not getting?

Remember to:

• Ask your Python question, not if you can ask or if there's an expert who can help.
• Show a code sample as text (rather than a screenshot) and the error message, if you've got one.
• Explain what you expect to happen and what actually happens.

:warning: Do not pip install anything that isn't related to your question, especially if asked to over DMs.

If you're getting an IndexError when doing tables[0], it's because there's no table on the page that has cellpadding set to 3

https://archive.ics.uci.edu/dataset/53/iris works much better than google.com
