It is recognized as an essential tool by modern business since it is able to convert data into business intelligence thus giving an informational edge. At present, it is widely used in profiling practices, like surveillance, marketing, scientific discovery, and fraud detection.

Effet Kevin Bacon : n’importe quelle page web est à 19 clics d’une autre

Et en théorie, selon le physicien hongrois Albert-László Barabási, n’importe quelle page tirée au hasard sur Internet peut être reliée à n’importe quelle autre page en cliquant 19 fois ou moins. C’est ce qu’il a découvert au cours de ses recherches, qui ont été publiées dans le journal Philosophical Transactions de la Royal Society. Barabási a découvert que, même si une page web a très peu d’hyperliens vers d’autres pages, il existe un groupe de pages qui rendent possibles cette règle des 19 degrés de connexion ou moins. Ces pages sont les Kevin Bacon du web, cela va des moteurs de recherche aux agrégateurs comme Reddit ou des sites comme Gizmodo, ce sont eux qui rendent possibles cette liaison rapide entre toutes les pages.

Parsing HTML with Nokogiri

Once you have it installed, you will likely use it for the remainder of your web-crawling career. Installing Nokogiri Unfortunately, it can be a pain to install because it has various other dependences, libxml2 among them, that may or may not have been correctly installed on your system. Follow the official Nokogiri installation guide here. Hopefully, this step is as painless as typing gem install nokogiri. For the remainder of this section, assume that the first two lines of every script are:

The Bastards Book of Ruby. Every kind of website we've dealt so far involves pages with actual direct links (sometimes known as permalinks). – will always (or should always, unless the webmaster is changing things around) refer to this page of Department of Defense contracts for 10/28/2011 . If you wanted to email someone: "Hey, check out these Oct. 28, 2011 DoD contracts," you would send them that link. However, many websites require you to fill out and submit a form. The website then directs you to a URL for a page of results.

But the page at that URL depends on parameters set by that previous form.
