[Python-ideas] socket module: plain stuples vs named tuples

[George Fischhof]

+1 ;-)

for example to get IP address of all interfaces we have to use the third
(indexed as 2) member of "something" it is much more beatiful to get
ip_address:

*import *socket
*for *ip *in *socket.gethostbyname_ex(socket.gethostname())[2]:
    print(ip)
