Hello everyone I know many have helped but I cannot get this to work
out correctly. I cannot use BeautifulSoup at all. I need to:
Parse the HTML and extracting all the links, convert them to IP
addresses, and build a list of all these IP addresses, thwn I need to
sort the list and remove the duplicates so that unit testing will work.
Please help I have never done python before and I can't seem to get the
hang of it.
