Socket programming lab assignment involving client-server interactions using TCP and UDP in Python

Python Socket Programming Lab

This project implements a client-server application using Python sockets (TCP and UDP) as part of a university lab assignment.

This project was completed as part of CEG4188: Higher Layer Network Protocols at the University of Ottawa. The lab focuses on developing client-server applications using TCP and UDP sockets in Python.

Lab Overview

The project involves:

• A TCP client to register for a Casino Game.
• A UDP client to play the game using credentials.
• A simple TCP server to manage multiple client connections using threading.

Socket programming lab assignment involving client-server interactions using TCP and UDP in Python.

Project Overview

This project demonstrates the implementation of a client-server architecture using Python sockets with both TCP and UDP protocols. The main goal is to create a TCP server that handles multiple client connections using threading, along with TCP and UDP clients for user registration and interaction.

Technologies Used

Languages and Tools: Python, TCP/UDP Sockets, Multithreading Key Concepts: Client-server architecture, socket communication, multithreading for handling multiple connections. Components

1. TCP Client - Registration System Description: A TCP client that registers a user for a game by connecting to a server. Key Features: Establishes a TCP connection on port 8814. Sends user credentials and receives a port to join the game server.

2. UDP Client - Game Interaction Description: A UDP client for playing a betting game after successful registration. Key Features: Connects to a UDP server to place bets and make predictions. Communicates results based on game logic using UDP protocols.

3. Multithreaded TCP Server Description: A TCP server that handles multiple client connections simultaneously.

Key Features:

Listens on port 8815 and manages up to 5 clients concurrently. Implements multithreading to allow clients to communicate independently. Sends welcome messages and responds to client inputs.
