The full form of TCP is Transmission Control Protocol.
TCP is a communication protocol that is used to send and receive data over the internet. It is one of the main protocols in the Internet Protocol Suite (commonly referred to as TCP/IP), which is the set of rules and standards that govern how data is transmitted on the internet.
TCP provides a reliable, ordered, and error-checked delivery of data between applications running on different devices. It breaks down the data into small packets, and each packet is numbered and tracked to ensure that it arrives at its destination in the correct order and without errors. If a packet is lost or damaged during transmission, TCP detects the error and retransmits the missing or damaged packet.
TCP is widely used for sending and receiving data between web servers and web browsers, and for many other applications that require reliable and error-free data transmission over the internet.
