Can someone explain what is meant by network protocol? Need a clear definition!

Network protocols are like the grammar of computer communication. Without them, messages would be gibberish.

HTTP is for web pages, TCP is for making sure data doesn’t get lost, and there are others like DNS for turning website names into IP addresses.

If you want a quick read, this article explains what is meant by network protocol really well: [https://www.lifewire.com/what-is-a-proto...rk-817941).
