It has been 3 hours writing the script for downloading the csvs from the nse website , scratching my head over why 2009 comes out as 3909 , only to know that the developers of the java Date class , for no logical reason that can come to my head right now , started recording years in excess of 1900. The class is deprecated all right , but this?
The online forum that gave me the above idea , ridiculed me for not seeing the warning messages generated.
Do Indians really care about warnings?
And why my work was wasted?
When the script was ready , I got to know that the URLs generated are not following a pattern.
How random can the NSE website get in storing their content?
BSE India , at least for it's online content is way better managed.
A total waste of 3 hours.
