so I spent 10 hours on this code so far. 2 hours were spent doign unproductive google searches, 2 hours spent reading about lxml before I realized I didn't have to compile from source and then I used an .exe and got it installed in 2 minutes, 1 hour spent looking at qualtrics and trying to download different kinds of files, and deciding against using html. For the remaining 5 hours, 2 hours were spent carelessly typing code that wouldn't run, or typing in code that was not formatted right or mispelled. 1 hour was spent reading documentation and stack overflow things. 2 hours were spent completing what I have right now, which actually works.
