hate to say it, but isn't protocol just a term for a set of "instructions"? (like when a user does *action* then the protocol of a certain program tells the computer to respond with *response*)


i don't think it's a language or global setting in itself. maybe you're thinking of internet protocol?

In proper term for Protocol: In computing, a protocol is a convention or standard that controls or enables the connection, communication, and data transfer between two computing endpoints. In its simplest form, a protocol can be defined as the rules governing the syntax, semantics, and synchronization of communication. Protocols may be implemented by hardware, software, or a combination of the two. At the lowest level, a protocol defines the behavior of a hardware connection.

There are a lot of protocols and of course tell me which you want to know. List of Network Protocol

If you want to make your own protocol, just learn the basic programming. Perhaps C# will help you get a kick start at that. Once you know how to do C# then you can do Socket Programming in System.Net.Sockets. That helps you create your own protocol by creating program that read the formal manner of data transmission. :)

there you go. i still prefer my "set of instructions" layman's terms user-friendly explanation though :3
