        ## Installation
        ```bash
        pip install pywikihow
        ```
        
        ## Usage
        
        ### Random How To
        
        Learn random stuff! Retuns a random WikiHow article. Sometimes they're weird.
        
        ```python
        from pywikihow import RandomHowTo
        
        how_to = RandomHowTo()
        how_to.print()
        
        ```
        
        ### Searching
        
        ```python
        from pywikihow import WikiHow, search_wikihow
        
        
        max_results = 1  # default for optional argument is 10
        how_tos = search_wikihow("how to learn programming", max_results)
        assert len(how_tos) == 1
        how_tos[0].print()
        
        
        # for efficiency and to get unlimited entries, the best is to use the generator
        for how_to in WikiHow.search("how to learn python"):
            how_to.print()
        
        ```
        
        ### Parsing
        
        Manipulate HowTo objects
        
        ```python
        from pywikihow import HowTo
        
        how_to = HowTo("https://www.wikihow.com/Train-a-Dog")
        
        data = how_to.as_dict()
        
        print(how_to.url)
        print(how_to.title)
        print(how_to.intro)
        print(how_to.n_steps)
        print(how_to.summary)
        
        first_step = how_to.steps[0]
        first_step.print()
        data = first_step.as_dict()
        
        how_to.print(extended=True)
        
        ```
        
        ### ToDo
        
        - Many WikiHow articles also contain "Parts" which break down further into sub-steps. Write a function to parse these additional divisions.
        - Add parser for tips
        - Add parser for warnings
