Creating a Simple Socket Server and Client in Python

This is a preview of a multipart video course on Socket Programming in Python. Sockets and the socket API are used to send messages across a network. They provide a form of inter-process communication (IPC). The network can be a logical, local network to the computer, or one that’s physically connected to an external network, with its own connections to other networks. You will learn how to create a simple socket server and client in Python.

This is a portion of the complete course, which you can find here:

The rest of the course covers:
- Handling multiple connection with the selectors module
- Build an improved client and server
- Considering tools for troubleshooting

This is a really good explanation, thanks

Do these Sockets work with computers in different places and different networks?

[sithichook]

Can we make a phone call with the socket ?

actually feels like i'm reading chatgpt replies. There's a lot of words but basically no meaning. It sorta creates the illusion of explaining things to you, but in actuality you're kind of not learning anything.
