# Some Python scripts ## Web scraping This was a personal-use "web spiders" to help me on certain goals such as seeking a new flat with specific characteristics or getting a massive list of edonkey links from a web page.
I've chosen **Python** due to the complete libraries suite for web scrapping that it offers, and the ease of using them.
But of course, since it's not my main language nor workspace the code quality and design are very poor. ### Flat search Some time ago, the real state agents fees were paid by the leaseholder, and find a flat rental comming directly from the owner meant saving a lot of money, but this was very hard to find, because the common web platforms only contained real state ads.
This homemade web spider helped me on finding these exceptional deals. ### Link capturer I've also developed one web spider that capture all the eDonkey links from a web-page so that I could copy them to a downloader manager ## Other tools I have here also a multi-threading HTTP GET requests script, that can be used to test the performance of a system under a certain load of concurrency requests. The purpose of its development was to have a metric of reference and later improve the performance.
