A quick definition of public contract:

A public contract is an agreement between two or more parties that creates obligations that can be enforced by law. It can be a written document or a verbal agreement. A contract is like a promise, and if someone breaks that promise, the law can help make things right. Sometimes people use the word "contract" to refer to the written document, but it's important to remember that the agreement itself is what really matters.

A more thorough explanation:

A public contract is an agreement between two or more parties that creates obligations that are enforceable by law. It can be a written document or a verbal agreement.

For example, a government agency may enter into a public contract with a construction company to build a new road. The contract will outline the terms and conditions of the project, including the timeline, budget, and specifications for the road. If either party fails to meet their obligations, they can be held legally responsible.

Another example of a public contract is a lease agreement between a landlord and a tenant. The contract will specify the terms of the lease, such as the rent amount, the length of the lease, and any restrictions on the use of the property. If either party violates the terms of the lease, they can be sued in court.

Overall, a public contract is a legally binding agreement that creates obligations for the parties involved. It is important to carefully review and understand the terms of any contract before signing it.
