QUESTION 7:

The server listens for a connection request from a client using which of the following statement?

a. Socket s = new Socket(ServerName, port);

b. Socket s = serverSocket.accept()

c. Socket s = serverSocket.getSocket()

d. Socket s = new Socket(ServerName);

Correct Answer:

b. Socket s = serverSocket.accept()

Detailed Solu on:

In server-client communica on using sockets, the server typically listens for incoming connec on
requests from clients. When a client a empts to connect to the server, the server must accept this
connec on request to establish a connec on.
The serverSocket.accept() method is used by the server to listen for and accept incoming
connec on requests from clients. When a client a empts to connect, serverSocket.accept()
blocks un l a connec on is made, and then it returns a new Socket object represen ng the connec on
between the server and the client.
