Broadcasting Program (1)

The document contains two C programs for a UDP broadcasting system: one for sending messages and another for receiving them. The sender creates a socket, sets it to broadcast mode, and continuously sends user-input messages to a specified broadcast address. The receiver binds to the broadcast address and listens for incoming messages, printing the received content along with the sender's address and port number.
