IP Address Representation | Make Computer Network Easy | Challenge- part-(3)
Dotted Decimal Representation is a way of expressing an IPv4 (Internet Protocol version 4) address. In IPv4, addresses are 32-bit numerical labels written in binary format. Dotted Decimal Notation is a more human-readable format that represents these binary addresses as a series of four decimal numbers, each separated by dots.
Each decimal number in the Dotted Decimal Notation corresponds to 8 bits in the binary address. The four decimal numbers together represent the 32 bits of the IPv4 address. For example, an IP address like “192.168.1.1” is in Dotted Decimal Notation, where 192, 168, 1, and 1 represent four groups of 8 bits each, adding up to the full 32-bit IPv4 address.
This notation makes it easier for humans to read and remember IP addresses, as opposed to dealing with long strings of binary digits.
