## Data Parsing Examples

### Python - Parse Tencent Finance Data

```python
import re
import urllib.request

def get_stock_data(code):
    url = f"http://qt.gtimg.cn/q={code}"
    with urllib.request.urlopen(url) as response:
        data = response.read().decode('gbk')
    
    # Extract data
    match = re.search(r'="([^"]+)"', data)
    if not match:
        return None
    
    fields = match.group(1).split('~')
    
    return {
        'name': fields[1],
        'code': fields[2],
        'price': float(fields[3]),
        'open': float(fields[4]),
        'high': float(fields[5]),
        'low': float(fields[6]),
        'change': float(fields[30]),
        'change_pct': float(fields[31]),
    }

# Usage
data = get_stock_data('sh600089')
print(f"{data['name']}: {data['price']} ({data['change_pct']}%)")
```

### Using web_fetch Tool

```python
# Get multiple stock data
url = "http://qt.gtimg.cn/q=sh000001,sh600089,sz399001"
# Use web_fetch to get data, then parse
```

## Notes

1. **Encoding**: Tencent Finance returns GBK encoding, decode properly
2. **Change %**: Use API-returned field (index 31), avoid calculating manually
3. **Data Delay**: Real-time data may have 15-minute delay
4. **Request Frequency**: Avoid high-frequency requests, use batch queries
5. **Error Handling**: Invalid codes return `v_pv_none_match="1"`, check response content
