TCP Socket Programming Project

A simple implementation of client-server communication using TCP sockets in C++.

Project Overview

This project demonstrates the fundamentals of socket programming by implementing:

• A TCP server that listens for connections, receives messages, and responds
• A TCP client that connects to the server and sends messages

The implementation focuses on understanding the core concepts of networking at the socket level.

Components

• server.cpp: TCP server implementation
• client.cpp: TCP client implementation

Building the Project

To compile the project:

# Build both client and server
make

# Build just the server
make server

# Build just the client
make client
