Summary: This code creates a server-side socket that connects to a client.
It receives a "fortune" from the client side, then reverses it and sends it
back

# first of all import the socket library
import socket
# next create a socket object
s = socket.socket()

# reserve a port on your computer in our
# case it is 12345 but it can be anything
port = 12345

# Next bind to the port
# we have not typed any ip in the ip field
# instead we have inputted an empty string
# this makes the server listen to requests
# coming from other computers on the network
s.bind(('', port))
print "socket binded to %s" %(port)

# put the socket into listening mode
s.listen(5)
print "socket is listening"

# a forever loop until we interrupt it or
# an error occurs
