My ultimate goal is to be able to create web pages and internet bots capable of searching specific things for me, simply to save me time in my day as little as crawling Youtube for a song that fails to be uploaded or other related examples. Please advise me. Thanks.

Second the motion.  Apple’s sandbox policies on iOS devices mean that while you can run Python on them (there are several versions available), the sandbox  pretty much guarantees that at some point you will need a library you can’t import, and you won’t be able to test your web pages as you go.

A MacBook Air is within a fraction of being as portable as an iPad, and can easily do everything you want.  If you are currently traveling with an iPad, you _might_ even discover you prefer traveling with the MacBook.
