In plain English

This repository is a collection of coursework from a Network Programming class taken at Konkuk University during the second semester of 2023. It's essentially a student's lab notebook for that course, written in Java. Based on the course title, the work here likely involves building programs that communicate over a computer network, things like simple chat applications, file transfer tools, or servers that handle multiple client connections at once. Network programming typically covers topics such as sockets (a standard way for programs to talk to each other across a network), protocols (the rules that govern how data is sent and received), and client-server architectures (where one program requests something and another provides it). The Java language has built-in libraries for this kind of work, which is why it's commonly used in introductory networking courses. The primary audience for this repo would be other students taking a similar networking course, instructors looking for examples, or anyone who wants to see what a university network programming class looks like in practice. If you're a student struggling with a socket programming assignment, for instance, browsing code like this might help you understand how the pieces fit together. That said, it's coursework rather than a polished, documented project, so it's more of a reference than something you'd run in production. The README doesn't go into detail, so there's no guidance on what each lab covers, how to run the code, or what specific topics were explored. Anyone hoping to use it would need to dig into the Java files directly to understand what each assignment does.

Copy-paste prompts

Prompt 1
Help me understand how Java socket programming works by walking me through a simple client-server chat example similar to a university networking lab.
Prompt 2
I'm taking a network programming course and need to build a Java program that handles multiple client connections at once. Show me how to structure that using sockets.
Prompt 3
Walk me through how to write a Java file transfer program over a network using sockets, as if it were a homework assignment for a networking class.
