Today in IL we are learning about the internet and practicing to take notes. I am going to be talking about the internet. About how the internet works and the internet functions. Specifically about networks of networks, switching packets and TCP/IP.
When someone uploads something on the internet, your laptop connects to networks, which in turn connects to other networks. These networks form the internet. Then you upload it to the internet, your computer finds the IP address. The content you are uploading splits up into equal packets, which it sends on the internet. The packets can take any route on the internet, but it takes the fastest one. If a packet gets lost, TCP will find an alternative route. TCP will sort the packets into the correct order. When all the packets arrive, the content which you want has been uploaded. What is amazing about this is that this all happens in a matter of seconds.
I hope this gives you a better understanding of how the internet works and the functions. Here is the video I used to help me find out about the internet.
