What is the difference between Transmission control protocol and User datagram protocol.
Transmission Control protocol is slower however is much more accurate as it numbers each packets and places them in the the correct order. User Datagram protocol uses speed however is not accurate.
What is the difference between a Local and Global variable?
Local variables are temporary and can only be used in the function where they are defined. Global variables are permanent and can be used anywhere in your code.
