Decimal to IP address
[1/3] from: ptretter::prodigy::net at: 9-Dec-2000 17:21
Anyone have an easy solution for converting a 32 bit decimal number to ip address.
Paul Tretter
We could really use a built in function for REBOL/Core I believe.

Hi Paul,
How about:
dectoip: make function! [netdec] [
d: netdec // 256
c: (to-integer netdec / 256) // 256
b: (to-integer netdec / 65536) // 256
a: (to-integer netdec / 16777216)
ip: to-tuple rejoin [a "." b "." c "." d]
]
print dectoip 3509897244
== 209.52.200.28
Regards,
Kev

A problem is that you would need to know whether the integer is in
host byte order or network byte order. For network byte order the above
function looks correct. For host byte order it would depend on whether
the number was created on a big endian or little endian machine. For
big endian the function is still correct, but for little endian you
need to use
ip: to-tuple rejoin [d "." c "." b "." a]
to form the IP address.
