the xml part is hard, not the #RStats one no ?
{xml2} and/or {rvest} are pretty handy

Logo for the #TidyTuesday Project. The words TidyTuesday, A weekly data project from the Data Science Learning Community (dslc.io) overlaying a black paint splash.
TidyTuesday is a weekly social data project. All are welcome to participate! Please remember to share the code used to generate your results! TidyTuesday is organized by the Data Science Learning Community. Join our Slack for free online help with R and other data-related topics, or to participate in a data-related book club! How to Participate Data is posted to social media every Monday morning. Follow the instructions in the new post for how to download the data. Explore the data, watching out for interesting relationships. We would like to emphasize that you should not draw conclusions about causation in the data. Create a visualization, a model, a shiny app, or some other piece of data-science-related output, using R or another programming language. Share your output and the code used to generate it on social media with the #TidyTuesday hashtag.

Promotional graphic for a "Contributing to base R" event with Ella Kaye on Tuesday, March 31 @ 12 pm ET at pos.it/dslab. The background features a large blue R logo over faint grey statistical plots, including a scatter plot, histogram, and line graph.
Did you know you (yes, YOU!) can contribute to base R?
Base R is the foundation of everything #RStats. If you’ve ever found a bug or thought of an improvement, you can help shape the language.
Join @ellakaye.co.uk on the Posit Data Science Lab tomorrow to learn how to get started! pos.it/dslab
