Thank you for reading this.
I'm a bit out of my depth here. I'm attempting to set up a simple udp
client.
The example that follows results in an error message and I'm wondering
if I should be importing a different module. A Google search doesn't
support that idea.

udp socket client

'''
import socket #for sockets
import sys #for exit
# create dgram udp socket
try:
s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_DGRAM)
except socket.error:
print 'Failed to create socket'
sys.exit()
host = 'localhost';
port = 8888;
while(1) :
msg = raw_input('Enter message to send : ')
try :
#Set the whole string
s.sendto(msg, (host, port))
# receive data from client (data, addr)
d = s.recvfrom(1024)
reply = d[0]
addr = d[1]
print 'Server reply : ' + reply
except socket.error, msg:
print 'Error Code : ' + str(msg[0]) + ' Message ' + msg[1]
sys.exit()
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "socket2.py", line 6, in <module>
import socket #for sockets
File "/home/phil/Python/socket.py", line 7, in <module>
s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_DGRAM)
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'AF_INET'
