New submission from Nick McElwaine:

import socket               # Import socket module
s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET,socket.SOCK_STREAM)  
s.connect(hostname,port) # this works
message = 'text'
s.sendall(message) TypeError: a bytes-like object is required, not 'str'

    s.sendall(message)
TypeError: a bytes-like object is required, not 'str'
