OUTPUT
SERVER SIDE CLIENT SIDE
Server is listening on port 9876… Enter message to send t o server: Hello World
Received Message : Hello World Message sent to server
Response sent to client Response from server : Message Received:
Hello World
ALGORITHM
SERVER SIDE :
Start
Create a UDP socket using socket()
Bind the socket to a specific IP address and port using bind()
Loop:
Wait to receive data from client using recvfrom()
Extract the data and client address
Process the data if needed
Optionally, send a response using sendto()
End Loop (or close socket on termination)
Close the socket
End
CLIENT SIDE:
Start
Create a UDP socket using socket()
Get the server IP address and port number
Prepare the data to be sent
Use sendto() to send the packet to server
Optionally, wait and receive the response from server using recvfrom()
Close the socket
End
