Democritus IP Addresses

Democritus functions^[1] for working with IP addresses.

[1] Democritus functions are simple, effective, modular, well-tested, and well-documented Python functions.

We use d8s (pronounced "dee-eights") as an abbreviation for democritus (you can read more about this here).

Installation

pip install d8s-ip-addresses

Usage

You import the library like:

from d8s_ip_addresses import *

Once imported, you can use any of the functions listed below.

• def ipv4_is_possible_version_number(ipv4_address):
      """Determine whether or not the ipv4 ip address is likely a version number or not. This is a beta function and is a work in progress. The word "Possible" in the function name should be taken seriously; this function will return `True` if the ipv4_address *might* be a version number. The results of this function are conjecture and should not be used definitively."""
