Intro to Computer Networks - Week 3

 Well it's hard to believe it's already time for the mid-term this next week.  This past week has been spent learning about the transport layer, which I think is a lot closer to what I had imagined a networking class to be about (not that the application layer wasn't insightful, but seems, as the name implies, much closer to application interaction/programming).  We spent a lot of time earning more about TCP and UDP this week.  Specifically around learning how TCP makes reliable data transfers possible and the techniques it uses to accomplish that.  We completed our first group programming assignment, which I think our team handled well and worked well together.  Our leader for this assignment, Zuhra, did a great job taking on the leadership role.  She worked with all of us to make sure we knew our parts and coordinated all the results in the end.
