Server Client Chat

The document describes code for a socket server and multi-client server. The server code creates a server socket that listens on port 6600 and accepts client connections. It prints messages received from clients and sent by the server. The client code connects to the server socket, prints messages from the server, and sends messages input by the user to the server. When a client connects, both create threads to asynchronously read and print messages from each other.
