how to do tcp/ip programming with c#

Server App

using System;
using System.Net;
using System.Net.Sockets;
using System.Text;
namespace Server
{
class Program
{
const int PORT_NO = 5000;
const string SERVER_IP = "127.0.0.1";
static void Main(string[] args)
{
//---listen at the specified IP and port no.---
IPAddress localAdd = IPAddress.Parse(SERVER_IP);
TcpListener listener = new TcpListener(localAdd, PORT_NO);
Console.WriteLine("Listening...");
listener.Start();
//---incoming client connected---
TcpClient client = listener.AcceptTcpClient();
//---get the incoming data through a network stream---
NetworkStream nwStream = client.GetStream();
byte[] buffer = new byte[client.ReceiveBufferSize];
//---read incoming stream---
int bytesRead = nwStream.Read(buffer, 0, client.ReceiveBufferSize);
//---convert the data received into a string---
string dataReceived = Encoding.ASCII.GetString(buffer, 0, bytesRead);
Console.WriteLine("Received : " + dataReceived);
//---write back the text to the client---
Console.WriteLine("Sending back : " + dataReceived);
nwStream.Write(buffer, 0, bytesRead);
client.Close();
listener.Stop();
Console.ReadLine();
}
}
}

Client App

using System;
using System.Net.Sockets;
using System.Text;
namespace Client
{
class Program
{
const int PORT_NO = 5000;
const string SERVER_IP = "127.0.0.1";
static void Main(string[] args)
{
//---data to send to the server---
string textToSend = DateTime.Now.ToString();
//---create a TCPClient object at the IP and port no.---
TcpClient client = new TcpClient(SERVER_IP, PORT_NO);
NetworkStream nwStream = client.GetStream();
byte[] bytesToSend = ASCIIEncoding.ASCII.GetBytes(textToSend);
//---send the text---
Console.WriteLine("Sending : " + textToSend);
nwStream.Write(bytesToSend, 0, bytesToSend.Length);
//---read back the text---
byte[] bytesToRead = new byte[client.ReceiveBufferSize];
int bytesRead = nwStream.Read(bytesToRead, 0, client.ReceiveBufferSize);
Console.WriteLine("Received : " + Encoding.ASCII.GetString(bytesToRead, 0, bytesRead));
Console.ReadLine();
client.Close();
}
}
}
