[–] sukilot 3y ago ↗ Looks nice, but would benefit from longer examples (10+ lines) to really get a feel for things.
[–] simonw 3y ago ↗ I thought it was neat how this helped me understand that IPv4 addresses are represented in a in_addr_t using just 4 bytes.https://memory-spy.wizardzines.com/game.html#example=convert... [–] danhau 3y ago ↗ Yup, IPv4 addresses are 32 bit unsigned integers which makes them very convenient to work with. That‘s also what that 50.60.70.80 syntax is about: Those are just the four individual bytes that make up the 32bit integer, separated by a period. [–] v7n 3y ago ↗ And the dotted representation is just that: both of these may bring you back to HN, and be pingable.http://0xd1d8e6f0 http://3520653040I made a short Go thingy to help you play around with this if you'd like: https://play.golang.com/p/Rybs_gwzLym

[–] cozzyd 3y ago ↗ This is a nice tool, especially because nowadays I'm surprised by how many people don't seem to know what a debugger is...
