[erlang-questions] Sometime it's the simple stuff...

[Nick Gerakines]

This is what I came up with. Keep in mind its late.

%% @spec url_from_ip(IpTuple) -> string().
%% where
%%       IpTuple = {integer(), integer(), integer(), integer()}
%% @doc Stringify a url out of an ip.
%% Use: url_from_ip({10, 0, 100, 1}).
url_from_ip(IpTuple) ->
    "http://" ++
    lists:foldl(fun(A, "") -> A; (A, Acc) -> Acc ++ "." ++ A end, "",
[integer_to_list(X)|| X <- tuple_to_list(IpTuple)])
    ++ "/".

*duck*
