    This document discusses the common base of 256 used on the Internet and how decimal numbers from 0 to 255 represent symbols in this system. Internet addresses are written in a format of four symbols separated by three dots, such as 10.200.14.72, which equals 10 * 2563 + 200 * 2562 + 14 * 2561 + 72 * 2560 in decimal notation. This number system is called dotted decimal notation. The decimal value is then calculated for the sample Internet address 100.200.155.245.

    A common base used on the Internet is b = 256.

    We need 256 symbols to represent a number in


    this system. Instead of creating this large number of symbols, the designers of this system have
    used decimal numbers to represent a symbol: 0 to 255. In other words, the set of symbols is S =
    {0, 1, 2, 3, …, 255}. A number in this system is always in the format S1.S2.S3.S4 with four
    symbols and three dots that separate the symbols. The system is used to define Internet addresses.
    An example of an address in this system is 10.200.14.72, which is equivalent to 10 * 2563 + 200
    * 2562 + 14 * 2561 + 72 * 2560 = 180883016 in decimal. This number system is called dotted
    decimal notation. Find the decimal value of each of the following Internet address:
    100.200.155.245
    Answer:
    (245 × 2560) + (155× 2561) + (200 × 2562) + (100 × 2563) = 1,690,868,725
