prompter: Tranlate this `curl` command to Python: `curl ifconfig.me`

assistant: ```python
import requests

response = requests.get("http://ifconfig.me")
print(response.text)
```

prompter: Can you write python code that does the same but does not use the requests library or anything else that is not part of the python standard library?

assistant: Here's an example of how you can achieve the same result using the http.client library from the Python Standard Library:

python

import http.client

conn = http.client.HTTPConnection("ifconfig.me")
conn.request("GET", "/")
response = conn.getresponse()
print(response.read().decode())


Here's an example that shows how to use the http.client library in the standard library to make a request to an API endpoint of a large language model, such as OpenAI's GPT-3 API. This code will retrieve text generated by the API.

python

import http.client
import json

conn = http.client.HTTPSConnection("api.openai.com")

payload = json.dumps({"prompt": "What is machine learning?"})

headers = { 'Content-Type': 'application/json', 'Authorization': 'Bearer <YOUR_API_KEY>' }

conn.request("POST", "/v1/engines/text-davinci-002/jobs", payload, headers)

res = conn.getresponse()
data = res.read()

text = json.loads(data.decode("utf-8"))['choices'][0]['text']
print(text)
Note that you would need to replace <YOUR_API_KEY> with a valid API key in order to run this code.

assistant: Of course! Here is an example of code that is functionally equivalent but utilizes only the Python standard library:

'''
import http.client
conn = http.client.HTTPSConnection("ifconfig.me")
conn.request("GET", "/")
res = conn.getresponse()
print(res.read().decode())
'''

```

assistant: ```py
import subprocess

response = subprocess.run([ "curl", "ifconfig.me" ], capture_output=True)

print(response.stdout)
```

assistant: For using 'curl ifconfig.me' in python you could use the PycURL library in python. This implementation would look like this:

'
import requests
url ="https://ifconfig.me/"
print url
'

prompter: No, I want to download the file from the domain `ftp://ifconfig.me` using python. The filename is `largedataset.csv`.

assistant: I meant to `import ftplib`, `requests` doesn't support ftp.
Let me fix that. I will rewrite that python code to download the file `largedataset.csv` from `ftp://ifconfig.me` using python.
```
import ftplib

ftp = ftplib.FTP("ifconfig.me")
ftp.login("username", "password")

filename = "largedataset.csv"

with open(filename, "wb") as f:
    ftp.retrbinary("RETR " + filename, f.write)

ftp.quit()
```

This code uses the `ftplib` library to open a connection to the ftp server and download the file. FTP passive mode is on by default, if you need to enable active mode you can add `ftp.set_pasv(False)`.

assistant: You can use the ftplib library to download the file from the ftp://ifconfig.me domain in Python like this:

```
import ftplib

ftp = ftplib.FTP('ifconfig.me')
ftp.login()
ftp.cwd('/')

filename = 'largedataset.csv'
with open(filename, 'wb') as f:
    ftp.retrbinary('RETR ' + filename, f.write)

ftp.quit()
```

assistant: Here is short python program that uses wget to download the file
1. Create file with the name main.py
```
import wget
link = 'ftp://ifconfig.me/largedataset.csv'
wget.download(link)
```
2. Install wget 
pip install wget
3. Run the program
python main.py
