Description: # UCMercedule: Scraper
        A Python module that scrapes [UC Merced class schedules][1] for you!
        
        Just create a `Schedule` object with `ucmscraper.Schedule(validterm)`, where `validterm` is a value from the eponymous radio button group found in the [UC Merced Schedule Search form][1]. Call `ucmscraper.fetchValidterms()` to get the current `validterm`s, or inspect the search page's raw source HTML.
        
        ## Installation
        ```
        pip install ucmscraper
        ```
        
        ## Example usage
        ```python
        import json
        import pathlib # Python 3.5+; for pre3.5 Python, import pathlib2
        import ucmscraper
        
        pathlib.Path('./example').mkdir(exist_ok=True)
        
        # Fall Semester 2018
        # schedule = ucmscraper.Schedule(201830)
        
        validterms = ucmscraper.fetchValidterms()
        schedule = ucmscraper.Schedule(validterms[-1]) # latest term
        
        with open('example/Fall_2018_Schedule.html', 'wb') as f:
            f.write(schedule.html)
        with open('example/Fall_2018_Departments.json', 'w') as f:
            json.dump(schedule.departments, f, sort_keys=True, indent=4)
        with open('example/Fall_2018_Sections.json', 'w') as f:
            json.dump(schedule.sections, f, sort_keys=True, indent=4)
        ```
        Check out the resulting schedule files in the [example folder](example/).
