You
are free to choose the programming language of your choice. Python, Java and
C++ are by default acceptable. Any other
language
should also be ok, but check with me first.
Your
program should run in Linux on hill.cs.cur.edu.
The
python programming language: a powerful programming language and can simplify
network programming significantly.
