need help running python script in linux

[xunil]

hi, could any one please help show me how to run a python script in
linux ?

when i try "python script.py" it just does nothing

this is the script iam trying to run


#!/usr/bin/env python
"USAGE: echoserver.py <port>"
from SocketServer import BaseRequestHand ler, TCPServer
import sys, socket

class EchoHandler(Bas eRequestHandler ):
def handle(self):
print "Client connected:", self.client_add ress
self.request.se ndall(self.requ est.recv(2**16) )
self.request.cl ose()

if len(sys.argv) != 2:
print __doc__
else:
TCPServer(('',i nt(sys.argv[1])),
EchoHandler).se rve_forever()


this is code for a server socket , iam supposed to see some messages
when i run the script but nothing shows completely

even the client script reacts the same way
below is the client code

#!/usr/bin/env python
"USAGE: echoclient.py <server> <word> <port>"
from socket import * # import *, but we'll avoid name conflict
import sys
if len(sys.argv) != 4:
print __doc__
sys.exit(0)
sock = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM)
sock.connect((s ys.argv[1], int(sys.argv[3])))
message = sys.argv[2]
messlen, received = sock.send(messa ge), 0
if messlen != len(message):
print "Failed to send complete message"
print "Received: ",
while received < messlen:
data = sock.recv(32)
sys.stdout.writ e(data)
received += len(data)
print
sock.close()


i have the python interpreter installed already
but i don't know why these failed to run.

could some one please come to my rescue

What's this? This probably shouldn't be inside of handle.

If you just run this script, the class EchoHandler will be created but
no instance of it will ever be created. You must add some code outside
the class definition that acutally does something.

class EchoHandler(Bas eRequestHandler ):
def handle(self):
print "Client connected:", self.client_add ress
self.request.se ndall(self.requ est.recv(2**16) )
self.request.cl ose()

if __name__ == "__main__":
if len(sys.argv) != 2:
print __doc__
else:
TCPServer(('', int(sys.argv[1])),
EchoHandler).se rve_forever()

this defines a class, but you dont instantiate the class- so the code
essentially doesn't do anything. I suggest you read some tutorials.
