The readings for Tuesday, February 9 are:
Once you have completed these readings, please answer the following questions:
What are the components of a URL? Given the URL,
http://127.0.0.1:9123/files?name=echosmith.mp3, identify each component.
In the context of HTTP, what is a client and what is a server? What is each side responsible for in a HTTP transaction?
Using the slides and files from last semester as references, write a
Tornado web application named searchit.py that allows users to enter in
some text in an input box and when they press Enter or click on a button,
the application searches a list of favorite song titles and displays any
matches.
An example of the application you are to build can be found at http://xavier.h4x0r.space:9999/
