Understanding the Problem and Solution The problem is about using pandas to manipulate a DataFrame in Python. The goal is to create new columns that represent the “next close” price and “next week’s close” price based on the current price, and then perform conditional calculations. The solution uses the shift method to move rows by a specified amount, effectively creating these new columns. It also uses the np.where function for conditional calculations.

Understanding rvest and the Issue with “Character(0)” rvest is a popular R package used for web scraping. It provides an easy-to-use interface for extracting data from HTML documents.
