Reliable Transport Protocol

Reliable Transport Protocol is a set of rules that ensures data sent over a network arrives accurately and in order. It manages communication between devices, confirming that each message is received correctly, and if not, resending it. This protocol handles errors, duplicates, and lost data to maintain a smooth and trustworthy data transfer, much like a certified mail service ensures your package reaches its destination intact and on time. It's essential for applications where accurate and complete information delivery is critical, such as web browsing, email, and file transfers.
