-// A client socket that uses UDP as the transport layer.
+// UDPSocket
+// Accessor API for a UDP socket in either client or server form.
+//
+// Client form:
+// In this case, we're connecting to a specific server, so the client will
+// usually use:
+// Connect(address) // Connect to a UDP server
+// Read/Write // Reads/Writes all go to a single destination
+//
+// Server form:
+// In this case, we want to read/write to many clients which are connecting
+// to this server. First the server 'binds' to an addres, then we read from
+// clients and write responses to them.
+// Example:
+// Bind(address/port) // Binds to port for reading from clients
+// RecvFrom/SendTo // Each read can come from a different client
+// // Writes need to be directed to a specific
+// // address.
