An interactive concept flow for tcp provides an ordered byte stream, from its assumptions through the main operation and boundary checks.
trace / request.md
readyTCP provides applications with a reliable, ordered byte stream over an IP network. It tracks sequence numbers, acknowledges received ranges, retransmits data when needed, and applies flow and congestion control. The application sees a stream of bytes rather than message boundaries.
Use the stages in order to explain tcp provides an ordered byte stream. Each stage makes one assumption visible: what the operation promises, what representation it uses, how state changes, which boundary can invalidate a shortcut, and what evidence confirms the result.
For a worked explanation, continue to the topic article and execution trace.
