I'm reading this book that says when creating a socket you have to use

so, which is it? or do authors loosely use these terms interchangeably
in this context?
It just looks like sloppy terminology to me.
>>> import socket as s
>>> s.socket
<class 'socket._socketobject'>
>>> s.gethostbyname
<built-in function gethostbyname>
