PermissionError: [Errno 1] Operation not allowed

I am completely new to python, linux RPI and scapy. I am trying to send some packages using scapy.
On the command line (only if superuser privileges are on scapy)

send(IP(dst="1.2.3.4")/ICMP())

      

        
        
        
      

    

This works great when running on a python script.

from scapy.all import *
p=send(IP(dst="1.2.3.4")/ICMP())

      

        
        
        
      

    

Gives an error message

Traceback (most recent call last):

I'm trying to work it out but can't, but I'm new to the environment so I don't know much. As far as my search goes, this issue has to do with sockets. But I still need a simple explanation to understand.
