    Data link question

    In order to delimit messages from a stream of bits being exchanged on a data link, a sender marks the beginning and end of each message with a control flag. In order to prevent the receiver from inadvertently detecting the end of a message when a pattern in the data matches the control flag, the sender stuffs extra bits or chara
