#define socket family
s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
print (“Socket successfully created”)
except socket.error as err:
print (“socket creation failed with error”,(err))
#default port
port = 80
try:
host_ip = socket.gethostbyname(‘www.facebook.com’)
except socket.gaierror:
#exit the system if error occurs
print (“there was an error resolving the host”)
sys.exit()
#connecting to the server
s.connect((host_ip, port))
print (“The socket has been connected to
facebook \n”,(host_ip))
