# File Downloader Script
2+
3+
4+
A file downloader script is a program or script that automates the process of downloading files from a given URL. It enables users to retrieve files from the internet without manual intervention.
5+
6+
File downloader scripts typically use the HTTP or FTP protocols to establish a connection with a server hosting the desired file. They send a request to the server and retrieve the file's content, which is then saved to a local destination on the user's machine.

## Instructions 📝
11+
12+
### Step 1:
13+
14+
Save the Script: Save the script code provided earlier in a file with the desired name, such as file_downloader.py. Make sure to save it with the .py extension, indicating that it is a Python script.
15+
16+
### Step 2:
17+
18+
Install Dependencies: Ensure that you have the necessary dependencies installed. In this case, the script relies on the requests library. You can install it using the pip package manager. Open a command prompt or terminal and run the following command:
19+
20+
pip install requests
21+
22+
### Step 3:
23+
24+
Customize the Script (Optional): Depending on your specific requirements, you can customize the script. For example, you can modify the file_url variable to point to the URL of the file you want to download, and set the save_as variable to specify the destination path and filename.
25+
26+
### Step 4:
27+
28+
Run the Script: Open a command prompt or terminal, navigate to the directory where the script is saved, and run the following command:
29+
30+
python file_downloader.py
31+
32+
### Step 5:
33+
34+
Check the Output: The script will attempt to download the file from the specified URL and save it to the destination path. You will see either a success message or a failure message displayed in the command prompt or terminal, depending on the outcome of the download operation.
35+
36+
37+
### Step 6:
38+
39+
Verify the Downloaded File: After running the script, check the destination path specified in the save_as variable. If the download was successful, you should find the downloaded file at that location.
