Overall a great course, just a question though..
In video 33/34 ("Generalizing our scraper"), in the code provided.
Is it safe to modify the to_visit set while iterating over it ?

At 2:23 in the " Implementing a basic scraper: processing HTML with BeautifulSoup (04:02 mins)" video, referenced is the "a_tags" list.

I am not sure what the loaded content of the list is, but I have tried several variations and do not get the results as in the video. would be helpful if there is some clarity on how to load the list. Also, when I run type on all of the a_tags lists I create, i get a type of <class 'bs4.element.ResultSet'>.

Please offer some guidance on this, otherwise the course is good.
