The Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) is a fundamental communication protocol in computer networking that ensures reliable and ordered data delivery between devices over a network. TCP incorporates error control mechanisms to handle data transmission errors efficiently and maintain the integrity of the transmitted data. Two key methods used by TCP for error control are the
