You’ve already covered a lot of ground in part one of this video course series! To build your multi-connection server and client, you’ve leveraged several functions and methods of the socket module.
In this video course, you’ve created:
- A simple socket server and client
- An improved version that handles multiple connections simultaneously
That means you’re well on your way to building a robust client and server. In the next installment of this video course series, you’ll take your work a step further by implementing a server-client application that functions like a full-fledged socket application, complete with its own custom header and content. You’ll ensure that your application can handle errors when they arise.
