COMPUTER NETWORKS EXPERIMENT-4

The document contains a server and client code for a simple socket-based application in C. The server processes messages to find the first and last letters, extract digits, or combine two messages based on user-selected services. The client connects to the server, sends requests, and displays the server's responses.
