In this networking project, I used curl
in Bash scripts to send various types
of HTTP headers. In the process, I learned about how URL's work, domain names,
the many different HTTP request/repsonse header fields and status codes, and
how to utilize cookies.
Task six was an algorithm challenge separate from the overall project theme completed in Python.
NOTE: The curl
behavior in all Bash scripts were written to interact with a
server set up on a container.
