socket([family[, type[, proto]]]) -> socket object

Open a socket of the given type.  The family argument specifies the
address family; it defaults to AF_INET.  The type argument specifies
whether this is a stream (SOCK_STREAM, this is the default)
or datagram (SOCK_DGRAM) socket.  The protocol argument defaults to 0,
specifying the default protocol.  Keyword arguments are accepted.

A socket object represents one endpoint of a network connection.

int(x[, base]) -> integer

Convert a string or number to an integer, if possible.  A floating point
argument will be truncated towards zero (this does not include a string
representation of a floating point number!)  When converting a string, use
the optional base.  It is an error to supply a base when converting a
non-string.  If base is zero, the proper base is guessed based on the
string content.  If the argument is outside the integer range a
long object will be returned instead.

gethostname() -> string

Return the current host name.

gethostbyname(host) -> address

Return the IP address (a string of the form '255.255.255.255') for a host.

setdefaulttimeout(timeout)

Set the default timeout in floating seconds for new socket objects.
A value of None indicates that new socket objects have no timeout.
When the socket module is first imported, the default is None.

Get fully qualified domain name from name.

An empty argument is interpreted as meaning the local host.

First the hostname returned by gethostbyaddr() is checked, then
possibly existing aliases. In case no FQDN is available, hostname
from gethostname() is returned.

getaddrinfo(host, port [, family, socktype, proto, flags])
    -> list of (family, socktype, proto, canonname, sockaddr)

Resolve host and port into addrinfo struct.

inet_aton(string) -> packed 32-bit IP representation

Convert an IP address in string format (123.45.67.89) to the 32-bit packed
binary format used in low-level network functions.

int(x[, base]) -> integer

Convert a string or number to an integer, if possible.  A floating point
argument will be truncated towards zero (this does not include a string
representation of a floating point number!)  When converting a string, use
the optional base.  It is an error to supply a base when converting a

inet_ntoa(packed_ip) -> ip_address_string

Convert an IP address from 32-bit packed binary format to string format

Faux file object attached to a socket object.

gethostbyaddr(host) -> (name, aliaslist, addresslist)

Return the true host name, a list of aliases, and a list of IP addresses,
for a host.  The host argument is a string giving a host name or IP number.
