 Hi
 I am new to python and I need to know about adding new blocks.
 I modified the benchmark_tx and rx.py files, so that the receiver will
 get the file from sender and store it in a txt file which is passed as
 an arguement. I also added few lines of code so that the receiver
 calculates the number of error bits in each packet it receives.
