TCPTypingTest

The TCPTypingTest is a client-server based application that allows users to test their typing speed and accuracy over a TCP connection. The server sends typing prompts to the client, times the responses, and logs the results. The client can end the session or request previous session logs.

Features

• Typing Test: Receive randomly chosen sentences to type which helps in testing typing speed and accuracy.
• Logging: Each typing response time is logged for future retrieval.
• Session Control: Clients can request to end the session gracefully or forcefully.
