In python you can use strings with the or and and keywords. The program sends a TCP request and prints the response, but if it fails it prints connection error.
def Send_TCP_Request():
  try:
    tcpc = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
    tcpc.settimeout(1)
    tcpc.connect(('0.0.0.0', 8000))
    tcpc.send('Hello World')
    Result = tcpc.recv(1024)
    tcpc.close()
  except:
    Result = None
  return Result
def setup():
  M5.begin()
  print(Send_TCP_Request() or "Connection Error")
