Re: interger to I P address

Ruby's IPAddr class is quite handy for IPv4 and IPv6 integer representation conversions. For IP to integer, whether IPv4 or IPv6, ruby code: require 'ipaddr' print "#{IPAddr.new('10.0.0.55').to_i}\n" print "#{IPAddr.new('2001:0db8:85a3:08d3:1319:8a2e:0370:7334').to_i}\n" Results in: 167772215 42540766452641195744311209248773141300 And for integer to IPv4, ruby code: require "ipaddr" print "#{IPAddr.new(167772215,Socket::AF_INET)}\n" Results in: 10.0.0.55 And for integer to IPv6, ruby code: require 'ipaddr' print "#{IPAddr.new(42540766452641195744311209248773141300, Socket::AF_INET6)}\n" Results in: 2001:0db8:85a3:08d3:1319:8a2e:0370:7334 Aaron out.
