//! The `duckduckgo` module handles the scraping of results from the duckduckgo search engine
//! by querying the upstream duckduckgo search engine with user provided query and with a page
//! number if provided.

/// This function scrapes results from the upstream engine duckduckgo and puts all the scraped
/// results like title, visiting_url (href in html),engine (from which engine it was fetched from)
/// and description in a RawSearchResult and then adds that to HashMap whose keys are url and
/// values are RawSearchResult struct and then returns it within a Result enum.
///
/// # Arguments
///
/// * `query` - Takes the user provided query to query to the upstream search engine with.
/// * `page` - Takes an u32 as an argument.
/// * `user_agent` - Takes a random user agent string as an argument.
///
/// # Errors
///
/// Returns an `EngineErrorKind` if the user is not connected to the internet or if their is failure to
/// reach the above `upstream search engine` page or if the `upstream search engine` is unable to
/// provide results for the requested search query and also returns error if the scraping selector
/// or HeaderMap fails to initialize.
