WiFiServer::available
Description
Gets a client that is connected to the server and has data available for reading. The connection persists when the returned client object goes out of scope; you can close it by calling the client.stop().
Syntax
WiFiClient available(uint8_t* status = NULL);
Parameters
status: Wi-Fi availability status. Default value: NULL.
Returns
This function returns a client object; if no Client has data available for reading, this object will evaluate to false in an if-statement.

WiFiServer::connected
Description
Check if server is still connected.
Syntax

WiFiServer::write
Description
Write data to all the clients connected to a server.
Syntax
virtual size_t write(uint8_t b);
Parameters
b: byte to be written
buf: data buffer
size: size of the data buffer
Returns
This function returns the number of bytes written. It is not necessary to read this.
