+Depending on its type, different behavior can apply. If `msg` is a `Buffer`,

+message begins and the number of bytes in the message, respectively.
+If `msg` is a `String`, then it is automatically converted to a `Buffer`

 contain  multi-byte characters, `offset` and `length` will be calculated with
 respect to [byte length][] and not the character position.
+If `msg` is an array, `offset` and `length` must not be specified.
 
 The `address` argument is a string. If the value of `address` is a host name,
 DNS will be used to resolve the address of the host. If the `address` is not
