Ip | Octal |

IP (Internet Protocol) addresses are used to identify devices on a network. They are typically written as four numbers separated by periods, such as 192.168.1.1. Each number is called an octet and can range from 0 to 255.
Octal notation is a way of representing numbers that uses a base of 8. Each digit in an octal number represents a multiple of a power of 8, with the rightmost digit representing 1 and each digit to the left representing a multiple of 8 times the previous digit.
To convert an IP address from its standard notation to octal, you would take each octet and convert it to octal. For example, the IP address 192.168.1.1 would be converted to the octal number 300.250.001.001.
192 = 300 168 = 250 1 = 001 1 = 001
