Validate an IP Address. Multiple test cases given.

Question

Anonymous · Accepted Answer

I was told not to use Regex so I did this by splitting the IP Address string at each '.' and then processing each of the sub-strings

def check_ip(ip):
    l = ip.split('.')
    if len(l) != 4:
        return False
    for item in l:
        try:
            val = int(item)
        except ValueError:
            return False
        else:
            if (val  256):
                return False
    return True
