I don't see how this is related to TCP being connection-oriented? If I 
implement this in C, using TCP I'm pretty sure I could use whatever ports I 
want to send data. Basically if run this code, with the port numbers 
chosen, client.remotePort will end up being 57812 or something from the 
50000-range. However for the algorithm I want have this in a static way, 
like having client.write() always send over a port of my choosing.
