Thumbs up thanx again
a ha, I see, thanx for clearify that, I have another little be query,
Quote:
This results in a string of 1's followed by a string of 0's. That will always be the case. Where we have 1's, the bits are the network number. Where we have 0's the bits are the host number.
how about the case, 11111111.11111111.11111111.11010100, so the rule for that is wether we count from the first left most 0 bit
or how many 0 bits or the position of 0 bits for the host number?
