equivalent. The four resulting decimal number are written in sequence, with
dots or decimal points.
example : 192.168.0.1 is an IP
address written in dotted decimal form, but actually binary version is 11000000
10101000 00000000 00000001
each 8 bit block is converted to
decimal and the decimal value are separated with periods or dots.
