Node-to-node data transfer

Okay kiddo, so imagine you have a toy car and your friend has a toy truck. If you want to give your friend your car, you need to go to their house and physically give it to them, right?

Now imagine your friend lives really far away and you can't just go over to their house. That's where node-to-node data transfer comes in.

Computers use something called nodes to communicate with each other. A node is basically just a point in a network where data can pass through.

So let's say you want to send a picture to your friend who lives far away. You can't physically give them the picture, but you can send it through the nodes in the network.

First, you would connect your computer to the network. Then, you would send the picture from your computer to the first node in the network. That node would then send it to the next node, and the next node, and so on, until it reaches your friend's computer.

Each node along the way acts like a postman, making sure the data gets to the next node until it finally reaches its destination.

And that's basically how node-to-node data transfer works! It's like passing notes in class, except with computers and nodes. Pretty cool, huh?
