We saw in the previous analysis that the first table node is not actually a table. This happens sometimes in html because tables are used to make text look a certain way, as opposed to storing numeric values. Remove the first component and then use sapply and html_table to covert each node in nodes into a table. Note that in this case, sapply will return a list of tables. You can also use lapply to assure that a list is applied.
