Hi below code validates the IP adress. Please do let me know how this can be enhanced so that it is more readable. The validations considered are listed below. 1) If the length of any part of the IP adress seperated by the decimal is more than one digit, then it should not start with zero. 2) The first part of the IP adress seperated by the decimal cannot be zero. 3) Any part of the IP adress seperated by the decimal cannot be more than 255. 4) IP address should contain only 3 decimals. 5) The numbers cannot be negative. print "Enter the IP address : "; $ip = <stdin>; if($ip =~ /^(3-9\d?|1\d?\d?|2(0-5?0-5?|6-9?))\.(0|3-9\d?|(1\d?\d?|2(0-5?0-5?|6-9?)))\.(0|3-9\d?|(1\d?\d?|2(0-5?0-5?|6-9?)))\.(0|3-9\d?|(1\d?\d?|2(0-5?0-5?|6-9?)))$/) { print "Correct\n"; } else { print "Wrong\n"; }

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
