    Many users are familiar with Excel's pivot table feature, which creates

    from a simple two-variable summary table.

    The worksheet below
    demonstrates. Range A1:E13 contains the original summary table, and

AutoPatcher.com » What’s AutoPatcher

  • How many times did you have to leave your computer, after a format, to download the updates you had before it? How many times did you have to go do something else, leaving your friend's computer download the load of updates with their poor little dial-up modem?

    attempt to describe HTML processing in Python using readily available tools
    and libraries.
