This script is a simple example of Python's urllib2 built-in function, and illustrates how easy it is to use network functionality directly in Python
import urllib2 cnt=0 for line in urllib2.urlopen('http://en.citizendium.org/wiki/Main_Page'): cnt += line.count('<img src') print cnt
You can try this from home! Paste this script into a file (such as getimg.py) and if you have installed a Python interpreter you can run this script. On Mac OS or Linux you probably have Python already, those on Windows will have to install Python from http://python.org (Python is free, open source software - no charge for downloading or using it)
