Make a random IP address in Perl

This Perl script makes reasonably convincing random IPv4 internet addresses.

#!/home/ben/software/install/bin/perl
use warnings;
use strict;
sub randomip
{
    my @digits;
    for (0..3) {
        push @digits, int (rand (255) + 1);
    }
    return join '.', @digits;
}
for (0..9) {
    print randomip (), "\n";
}

The output looks like this:

34.29.63.228
130.83.202.164
53.53.11.122
150.162.44.91
235.82.227.22
7.38.139.212
161.129.55.158
173.94.9.150
212.137.86.37
225.217.178.203
