The article would be helped by using a full regex for ipv4 addresses - the one it uses would match invalid numbers (999.999.999.5 for instance), but the proper one is more complex (and would probably make for a better example as a result) A

I gave these to the high school kids that I mentor Robotics for - they each seemed to find different puzzles that they liked, so I consider that a win. These are the same kids who had fun learning binary search as a way to always win "
