title: How to tell if a website uses JSON or XML and how to pull that data?
body: <p>I cannot for the life of me find any resources for the above. What I'm attempting to do is discover if the website I am looking at uses JSON or XML, and then to pull that data. I understand that is a complicated question, so if anyone has any resources I would appreciate it. What I have now is a UITableViewController and in its initWithStyle: method I include my own method call of "fetch feed." My fetch feed method looks like so:</p>
  
  <pre><code>- (void)fetchFeed
  {
  NSString *requestString = @"http://www.fargoforce.com.prod.sportngin.com/schedule/team_instance/850830?subseason=170237";
  NSURL *url = [NSURL URLWithString:requestString];
  NSURLRequest *req = [NSURLRequest requestWithURL:url];
  
  NSURLSessionDataTask *dataTask =
  [self.session dataTaskWithRequest:req
                  completionHandler:
   ^(NSData *data, NSURLResponse *response, NSError *error) {
  
       NSDictionary *jsonObject = [NSJSONSerialization JSONObjectWithData:data
                                                                  options:0
                                                                    error:nil];
  
       NSString *json = [[NSString alloc] initWithData:data encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
       NSLog(@"%@", json);
       NSLog(@"%@", jsonObject);
  
       dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^{
           [self.tableView reloadData];
       });
   }];
  [dataTask resume];
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I'm so confused. What is mySQL? What is github? If I'm looking to have a sport's team's schedule represented in a table view but the website doesn't even have JSON or XML but uses images (pictures of a calendar), can I create my own JSON data on xcode and put this on a server using mySQL or github? </p>
  
  <p>Thanks. </p>
