A computer that requests the services of another computer on a network is called a "client". In a client-server network architecture, the client computer is the one that initiates a request to the server computer, which responds by providing the requested services or resources. The client computer can be any device on the network, such as a laptop, desktop, smartphone, or tablet, while the server computer is usually a powerful computer or a group of computers that manage the network resources and services. The client sends requests to the server for services such as file sharing, printing, or database access, and the server responds by providing these services to the client.
