Class methods

Ping.start()

Starting ping loop with given parameters. Always starts at the first sequence number. If quiet then returns tupple with ping results:
result(tx=4, rx=4, losses=0, min=106.221, avg=106.606, max=107.521)
Where:
tx - transmitted, rx - received, losses - percentage of packets that be lost.

Ping.ping()

Sending just a one packet. Keeps and increment current sequence number.

import uping
pinger = uping.Ping('example.org')
# Some awesome code
pong = pinger.ping()
print(pong)

Returns sequense number(int), round-trip time (ms, float), ttl(int)
(5, 106.521, 54)
