FTP stands for File Transfer Protocol. It's a standard network protocol used to transfer files between a client (like your computer) and a server on a computer network.
Example:
Let's say you have a website, and you want to upload some files (like HTML, images, or documents) to the server where your website is hosted. You can use FTP to do this. You would use an FTP client (a software application) to connect to the server, and then you can transfer your files from your computer to the server, or vice versa.
So, FTP is like a method for copying files from one computer to another over the internet.
