Description

Create a script that tracks the price of the stock as well as give information on the stock, such as what the company does as well as give the URL of the stock to look up. I will be working on this and get this repo pushed hopefully within the next week or two.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Explore financial data APIs (e.g., Alpha Vantage, Yahoo Finance) to fetch stock price and company information. Implement a script that takes a stock symbol as input and outputs current price, company description, and a URL for further details.
