Why we using Tcp/IP. Why we can't use just Tcp ip? What is
the meaning of '/' symbol in between this?

Answer Posted / akshay sharma

The meaning of symbol "/" is AND that means Tcp and IP. TCP
provides the service of exchanging data reliably directly
between two network hosts, whereas IP handles addressing and
routing message across one or more networks.
Internet Protocol is not reliable so that's why we use TCP
for reliability. Remember OSI is just a reference model
TCP/IP is a real time model.
