Oserror: [winerror 10038] An Operation Was Attempted On Something That Is Not A Socket

I was testing out a client-side scheme here server and client use same port 9009 to connect somehow the following code gives me OSError as wrote in the titile: import sys import so

Solution 1:

        socket_list = [sys.stdin, s]

        # Get the list sockets which are readable
        ready_to_read,ready_to_write,in_error = select.select(socket_list,[],[])

Python » Documentation » The Python Standard Library » 16. Optional Operating System Services » 16.1. select — Waiting for I/O completion:

… Note that on Windows, it only works for sockets; on other operating systems, it also works for other file types …

So, unlike on a sane OS, we cannot use sys.stdin here.
