To guide readers through the new scripting language, Python, this book discusses
every aspect of client and server programming. And as Python begins to replace
Perl as a favorite programming language, this book will benefit scripters and
serious application developers who want a feature-rich, yet simple language,
for deploying their products.
The text explains multitasking network servers using several models, including
forking, threading, and non-blocking sockets. Furthermore, the extensive examples
demonstrate important concepts and practices, and provide a cadre of fully-functioning
stand alone programs. Readers may even use the provided examples as building
blocks to create their own software.
