Scenario. In Chat application server and client application can chat with each other through text
messages. The chat ends when server or client application sends “exit” message.

transfer data.
• Receive a message from the Client using recv()/read() system call.
• Send the received message back(echo) to the client using send()/write() system call.
• Close the socket using close() system call

Client Side:
