Python Programming Network Chatbox

Program a Network Chat Box with Python

 

A basic understanding of how the internet works is a valuable tool for many of the tech jobs of the future. Explore the intricacies of the web by using Python to program a chat box for internet communication.

Students will get an introduction to the syntax of the Python language and then will use it to create a chat box. In building the chat box, they will develop an understanding of how a message traverses the digital web from one person at one point in the world to another. Students will also explore how they can make this communication more efficient and more secure. Experience with Python is helpful but not required.
