# LLAMA SLOBBER
Llama_slobber is a package of python3 tools useful for Learned League data analysis.
Right now, it consists of screen scraping routines which can be used to extract data from Learned League web pages. Eventually it will also include routines that will calculate various obscure metrics and possibly have other tools useful for other Llamas.
## Name Origin
[Learned League](http://www.learnedleague.com) is a website hosting a series of on-line trivia tournaments (see this [Washington Post article](https://www.washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/style/the-coolest-weirdest-internet-community-youll-never-be-able-to-join/2014/08/20/3c3f565e-26eb-11e4-958c-268a320a60ce_story.html?noredirect=on&utm_term=.16ba008490a5) for more information). Due to the fact that Learned League starts with the letters LL, members of this league tend to refer to themsleves as llamas.
During some on-line discussion on this site, someone off-handedly refered to some members of the group as Learned League Sabrmetricians which definitely is the wrong term. Sabrmetrics refers to the analysis of baseball data performed by the [Society of American Baseball Research](https://sabr.org). We were clearly different. So I have started the Society of Learnedleague Obscure and Byzantine Reseach (abbreviated SLOBR), and developed this package to aid others in doing analysis of Learned League data.
## Installation
Llama_slobber has been packaged on the [Python Package Index website](https://pypi.org) and can be downloaded using the following command: python -m pip install llama_slobber. It is frequently updated, so in order to get the most recent version run the following:
` python -m pip uninstall llama_slobber python -m pip install llama_slobber `
## logindata.ini file
In order to use the tools in llama_slobber, one must be able to login to the Learned League website. So before any of these tools can work, the user must create a file named logindata.ini which would contain the following:
` [DEFAULT] username = <your Learned League user name> password = <your Learned League user password> `
This logindata.ini file should be placed in the directory from which the user’s python code will be run.
