Yes it matters because if we forget about just passing the tests for a
minute, the original implies that you are calling the server class
constructor with a port (integer) and an app and the second implies a
hostname (string) and an app. Consistency would be favorable, no?<br>
<br>
Note that yes, if I do hard code this as Amenta suggested all of the
tests pass, thanks to both Joes for assistance.<div><div></div><div class="h5"><br>

am a little stumped as to why the Blocking server is instantiated in
the hw7 tests with<br>
<br>
server = webserve.Server(8000, app)<br>
<br>
but the Non-blocking server is instantiated with<br>
<br>
server = webserve_nb.NonblockingServer('', hello_app)<br>
<br>
Notice the first argument is an integer in the former and a string in
the latter. Is it just me or am I missing something? How do we deal
with this (for non-blocking) since the port should be dynamically
passed in upon instantiation from a command line argument?<br>
<br>
My goal is to subclass the Blocking server and only to override its
__init__() and serve_forever() methods. Any ideas?<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
