```python3

||||||
|
import socket
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
client = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_DGRAM, socket.IPPROTO_UDP)
|
||||||
|
client.setsockopt(socket.SOL_SOCKET, socket.SO_REUSEPORT, 1)
|
||||||
|
client.setsockopt(socket.SOL_SOCKET, socket.SO_BROADCAST, 1)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
client.bind(("", 6969))

while True:
