ABSTRACT
When interacting over a network, the way information is transferred is by using packets. These packets come in a variety of different formats, each consisting of a variety of data. The ability to analyze packets is vital in seeing what is going on in a network, and to be able to interact with it in a more precise manner. Julia is a programming language that lacks this ability. This project's goal was to implement such functionality within Julia, to allow its users to use it as an alternative to existing languages. It also aimed to do so with speed, and with relative ease to the user.
