How to send POST request?

I found this script online:

import httplib, urllib 

params = urllib.urlencode({'number': 12524, 'type': 'issue', 'action': 'show'}) 

headers = {"Content-type": "application/x-www-form-urlencoded",

 "Accept": "text/plain"} 

conn = httplib.HTTPConnection("bugs.python.org") 

conn.request("POST", "", params, headers) 

response = conn.getresponse() 

print response.status, response.reason 

302 Found 

data = response.read() 

data 

'Redirecting to <a href="http://bugs.python.org/issue12524">http://bugs.python.org/issue12524</a>' conn.close()

But I don't understand how to use it with PHP or what everything inside the params variable is or how to use it. Can I please have a little help with trying to get this to work?

To send the post request you can use the below-mentioned code:-

>>> import requests 

>>> r = requests.post("http://bugs.python.org", data={'number': 12524, 'type': 'issue', 'action': 'show'}) 

>>> print(r.status_code, r.reason) 

200 OK 

>>> print(r.text[:300] + '...')
