Socket Programming
example
What's the return value of Socket.accept() in python
# server.py
import socket
s = socket.socket()
host = socket.gethostname()
port = 1234
s.bind((host, port))
s.listen(5)
while True:
c, addr = s.accept()
print 'Got connection from', addr
c.send('Thank you for your connecting')
c.close()
A pair (host, port) is used for the AF_INET address family, where host is a string representing either a hostname in Internet domain notation like 'daring.cwi.nl' or an IPv4 address like '100.50.200.5', and port is an integer.
