This C code defines a client for a UDP socket-based messaging application. It includes header files for sockets, networking, time functions. The main function initializes a socket, connects to a server, prompts the user for input messages, sends each message to the server along with a timestamp, receives and prints the server's response with another timestamp. The client continuously loops to allow sending multiple messages.
