Solution

In Python, you can use the pandas library function read_html() to extract tables directly from a webpage. Here are the steps:

  1. First, you need to install the pandas library if you haven't already. You can do this using pip:

    pip install pandas
    
  2. Import the necessary libraries:

    import pandas as pd
    
  3. Use the read_html() function to extract tables from the webpage. This function returns a list of DataFrame objects representing all tables found on the webpage:

    tables = pd.read_html("url_of_the_webpage")
    
  4. Now, tables is a list of dataframes. You can access a table by indexing:

    table = tables[index]
    

    Replace index with the index of the table you want (the first table on the page has an index of 0).

Remember, the webpage must contain table elements (<table>), otherwise, this function won't find any tables.
