    This document describes a program that uses shared memory for interprocess communication (IPC) between a sender and receiver process. The receiver process creates a shared memory segment, stores a user-input message in the segment, and prints the stored message. The sender process attaches to the same shared memory segment, retrieves the stored message, and prints it. This demonstrates basic message passing between two processes using shared memory for IPC.
