The interactive interpreter is a good tool to try to access various elements
in the "soup":
$ python -i yourcode.py # enter the interpreter when your script terminates
[snip]
<td class="odds" data-odd="3.48"></td>
<td class="odds best-betrate" data-odd="2.04"></td>
>>>
>>> odd
<td class="odds best-betrate" data-odd="2.04"></td>
>>> odd.attrs["data-odd"]
'2.04'
If you want to do calculations you have to convert the string to a number
first:
>>> float(odd.attrs["data-odd"])
2.04
You probably want the match, too, so it may be better to go for the <tr>
elements in the first table:
>>> for tr in soup.table.find_all("tr", class_="strong"):
>>>
... print tr.find(class_="first-cell").string,
... print float(tr.find(class_="odds").attrs["data-odd"])
...
