.. py:class:: NetworkSocket(host='localhost', port=13050, timeout=0.1)


   This class represents a network socket that can be used to connect to a server, send data, and receive data.

   .. py:method:: connect()

      Connects the socket to the specified host and port.
      Sets the timeout value and sets the 'connected' attribute to True.


   .. py:method:: close()

      Closes the socket and sets the 'connected' attribute to False.


   .. py:method:: send(data: bytes)

      Sends the specified data (in bytes) to the connected server.


   .. py:method:: receive() -> Union[bytes, None]

      Attempts to receive data from the server. The received data is processed using a regular expression to extract
      complete messages. If a complete message is found, it is returned as bytes and removed from the buffer.
      If no complete message is found, None is returned.

      If a timeout occurs or a connection reset error is encountered, the socket is closed and None is returned.
