in thread Net::Ping output

I am sorry ,but didn't get you .would you please elaborate more,because I have seen this code & it does not seems like to draw the required values

$p = Net::Ping->new();
    $p->hires();
    ($ret, $duration, $ip) = $p->ping($host, 5.5);
    printf("$host [ip: $ip] is alive (packet return time: %.2f ms)\n",
+ 1000 * $duration)
      if $ret;
    $p->close();

Now please tell me how can I calculate RTT,how I can get transmitted packets,recieved packets.Please!!!

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;` [download] Throw in a `sleep 1;` there somewhere if you want.

Ok , then how it will tell that its minimum or maximum RTT	[reply]

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]
