Combine extracted data into a data frame

Extracting data like this is not as straightforward as with html_table(). So far, you've only extracted vectors of data. Now it's time to combine them into their own data frame.

The vectors actors, roles, and functions that you just extracted from the messy HTML table are still available in this exercise.
