Write a UDP client that:

• take two arguments, an IP address and a port number
• The first argument represents an broadcast address
• The second arguments represents the port number used by the server
• The client detects the server IP address using the broadcast address supplied as first argument:
• The client sends a datagram containing "PING" to the broadcast address (eg. 10.10.10.255), port number
7654
• The server receives the datagram and responds with a datagram containing "PONG" directly to the client
(unicast), port number is computed directly from the previous datagram
• The client responds with a datagram containing "PING-PONG" directly to the server which repplyed
(unicast);
• If the client receives any other message than "PONG" it should continue to wait for the right message;

Important: When sending the PING-PONG message, be careful to send it on the socket address from where the
datagram came. See the method getSocketAddress from DatagramPacket class.

Example dialog
client->broadcast PING
server->client PONG
client->server PING-PONG
