Example

• You must at least specify the remote host and port to connect to.

• The host may be specified as either a string like "utopia.poly.edu" or as an InetAddress object.

• The port should be an int between 1 and 65535.

  Socket webMetalab = new Socket("metalab.unc.edu", 80);

• You cannot just connect to any port on any host. The remote host must actually be listening for connections on that port.

• You can use the constructors to determine which ports on a host are listening for connections.
