I am working thru some literature in an effort to learn python on my own. My efforts were progressing favorably until recently when the subject turned to sockets. I have little knowledge in networking but I need help in this area to continue on. The simple listing that I have copied from the book that I am working through looks like this. Also here is the error message:
