in thread Net::Ping output

RTT is stored into $duration; if a packet was received, $ret is true. Are you aware that you are using a programming language and can make the computer do things?

my $p = Net::Ping->new();
$p->hires();

my $received = 0;
for (1..4) {  # 4 is the amount of packets transmitted
    my ($ret, $duration, $ip) = $p->ping($host, 5.5);

    $received++ if $ret;
    printf "Your RTT is %.2f ms\n", $duration * 1000;
}
printf "Received %i packets\n", $received;

Throw in a sleep 1; there somewhere if you want.

The same way you would do it in real life: Compare it to a previously stored minimum and maximum.	[reply]

Are you aware that you are using a programming language and can make the computer do things? That is by far the most sarcastic sentence I've read in ages! roflmfao! (apologies to gaurav)	[reply]
