Sockets have a phantom type parameter that tracks the state of the socket in order to eliminate certain errors in which socket functions are called in the wrong order. Initially, a socket is `Unconnected. As various socket functions are called, they return a socket with a new phantom state. Here is a chart of the allowed state transitions.
