Many underlying procedures must be executed, and several data points must be moved around for your application to deliver a message to another computer. Understanding everything that goes under the socket interface might be too much for a bachelor-level course, thus, we are focusing on <strong>application-layer development</strong>. To start, the following sections of the manual will introduce you to the basics of socket programming and the low-level concepts required to interact with the socket abstraction. We also provide a very basic Python guide to facilitate the development of the assignments.</p>
