Package: golang-github-apparentlymart-go-cidr-dev (1.1.0-1)

manipulations of CIDR netmasks and their associated addresses

This Go package is a collection of assorted utilities for computing network and host addresses within network ranges.

It expects a CIDR-type address structure where addresses are divided into some number of prefix bits representing the network and then the remaining suffix bits represent the host.

For example, it can help to calculate addresses for sub-networks of a parent network, or to calculate host addresses within a particular prefix.

At present this package is prioritizing simplicity of implementation and de-prioritizing speed and memory usage. Thus caution is advised before using this package in performance-critical applications or hot codepaths. Patches to improve the speed and memory usage may be accepted as long as they do not result in a significant increase in code complexity.
