I am a little annoyed and feel like giving up. I need to write a program that does something very simple, I give it a server and have it connect to the server and then print a message based on whether it connected or not. I have been trying to find example code all week, but none exists. All I can find is how to write a server and client, I just need to write a basic program that connects to like duckduckgo.com or something in C. I just need a basic example so I can understand how it works and there is nothing out there. Does anyone have a simple example? I just need a basic http connection to a server and can't find anything.

strange.
using C as language of choice i seem to get lots of relevant results.

The issue I am having is I just need a simple connection and don't understand the code enough to remove all the extra post stuff. I just need a simple example and there is nothing I can find.

Judging from your other posts regarding C programming, I think you need to focus on the basics before moving on to a more specific topic like networking. But, if you feel like you're up to the challenge this is a good introduction to sockets.
