This repository provides a set of Python scripts demonstrating various aspects of socket programming, particularly focusing on TCP protocol and client-server interactions. Each example is crafted to illustrate key network programming concepts, ranging from simple data transmissions to complex protocol implementations like Reliable Data Transfer (RDT) 3.0.

• Description: These scripts demonstrate a TCP server and client exchanging data in JSON format. The client sends a JSON request for specific operations (e.g., squaring a number), and the server responds in JSON. This example is excellent for learning structured data exchange in network programming.

• Description: This example features a TCP server that sends the current date and time to the client. It's a straightforward implementation showing data transmission over TCP.

• Description: These scripts implement the RDT 3.0 protocol, which ensures reliable data transfer over an unreliable network layer. This example is critical for understanding how higher-level protocols like TCP manage reliable communication over the inherently unreliable IP layer.

• Description: A TCP client designed to send messages to an echo server and receive responses. This script demonstrates bi-directional communication and continuous data exchange in a networked application.

• Description: A simple code for getting the IP_address

• Python 3.x is required.
• Run the server script first, then the client script.
• For scripts involving both server and client, use separate terminals or machines but within the same network.

• Python 3.x
• Basic understanding of networking concepts
• Network access for socket communication

These scripts are intended for educational purposes, illustrating basic to intermediate concepts in socket programming with Python. They are not suited for production environments without modifications and testing.
