This is a program i have created that goes to thehackernews.com site and scraps the main headlines displayed on their page. The information that is scraped is formatted accordingly and written into a csv file to provide a quick summary of the main headlines. links are also provided in the file, so if the user wishes to read more about an artical they have the URL.
