# Super-small python script to ping web/internet or local hosts
# This script will ping specified host 4 times and print output to your browser.
# Save into your public document root of your webserver (under name "python-ping.py", for example)
# Run in browser address bar like http://myserver.com/python-ping.py?p=yandex.ru
# This way it will ping yandex.ru 4 times and print result to your browser.
# Also you can run it without web browser right from your terminal session and get similar output:
# python python-ping.py p=ya.ru
