Hi I am Aditya Singh and this is my C++, Pthreads project.

Description

This is a simple P2P (peer-to-peer) file sharing application that supports concurrent downloading. Peers can download different parts of a shared file simultaneously, making the download process faster.

Features

• Concurrent downloading from multiple peers
• Simulated network latency and random data transmission delays
• Combined downloaded parts into a single file

Dependencies

• C++ Compiler (Supporting C++11 or later)

Installation

1. Clone the repository: git clone https://github.com/yourusername/mini-torrent.git
2. Navigate to the project directory: cd mini-torrent
3. Compile the code: g++ -o main main.cpp -pthread

Usage

1. Start the mini-torrent: ./main
2. Enter the number of peers when prompted.
3. Observe the downloading progress.
4. After the download completes, check the downloaded_file.txt for the combined content.

Code Example

// To complie use the folowing code:
g++ -o mini_torrent main.cpp -pthread
// The you can run the program with different options to test the concurrent downloading functionality.
For example: ./mini_torrent -n 5 -f myfile.txt
