Socket won't connect, giving me a typeerror - GalaxyCoyote - Mar-23-2020
I am trying to establish a connection to server.py but client.py outputs this error
Error:Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Users\Nathan\Desktop\Coding\Langs\Python\Projects\Chatting Program\Client.py", line 15, in <module>
clientsocket.connect((host, port)) # Connects to the server
TypeError: an integer is required (got type str)from socket import *
import socket
## -- Server (Room) -- ##
host = input("Host: ")
port = input("Port: ")
#int(port)
username = input("Username: ")
username = "<" + username + ">"
print(f"Connecting under nick \"{username}\"")
clientsocket = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM) # Creates socket
clientsocket.connect((host, port)) # Connects to the server
while True:
Csend = input("<MSG> ") # Input message
Csend = f"{username} {Csend}" # Add username to message
clientsocket.send(Csend) # Send message to ONLY the serverI have tried converting host and port into str, int, and float, but it only successfully converts into str. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

It seems that you did not convert to int (or did it badly) because below code works properly.
clientsocket.connect((host, int(port)))
