Introduction

Introduction to the Internet.
The Internet is an international network. It is a global network that connects millions of networks together using a set of protocols called the TCP/IP. These networks belong to different categories of organisations, such as educational institutions, government, military and commercial services. The Internet evolved from a small network of four computers called the ARPANET (Advance Research Projects Agency Network). The word Internet is a combination of two words; ‘International and network’. ‘Inter’ stands for International, while ‘net’ stands for network.
