4BillionIPs's Project

In this project that I created out of my boredomness, I tried to generate 4 billion IPs (or exact 2^32) and publish it in this repository. It said that it took approximately 57.1 GB (61.337.505.792 bytes (what??)) of disk storage that I have

This file is so big my Notepad couldn't read it allat (I couldn't even upload it to GitHub)

You COULD try contributing to this project by making an even optimized script that generates 4 billion IPs in different programming language

Rules of generating 4 billion IPs

  • Must be IPv4 (of course.)
  • Use built-in module that is pre-installed
  • Each IP has 4 different number positions ranging from 0 to 255
  • Sorted from 0.0.0.0 to 255.255.255.255
  • Have 2 version of the script (storage-usage & memory-usage a.k.a buffer-usage)
  • Progress logging is optional

Issues? Contribution Request?? A question???

Use each communication feature from GitHub correctly

  • Issues are for when you found a problem and you want to report it
  • Request to contribute adding new language script or modifying current script? Pull Request is the way to go
  • You have a question? Start a discussion in Discussions with the category QnA

Contemplating my life

Was this worth it enough? No. No it doesn't. But I had fun with it.
