minus-squareA_A@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2arrow-down1·2 days ago2^10 = 1024 is the soure for ~1/1000. Also, correcting my stupid mistakes : nb. of iPv4 = 2^(4*8) = 2^32 nb. they have = 2^24 , so ~16 millions. fraction they have = (2^24 / 2^32) this is ~1/256. Stupid, but … … less boring than ~1/1024.

2^10 = 1024 is the soure for ~1/1000.
Also, correcting my stupid mistakes :
nb. of iPv4 = 2^(4*8) = 2^32
nb. they have = 2^24 , so ~16 millions.
fraction they have = (2^24 / 2^32)
this is ~1/256. Stupid, but …
