DESCRIPTION
       NetAddr::IP::UtilPP provides pure Perl functions for NetAddr::IP::Util

       * $rv = hasbits($bits128);
	   This function returns true if there are one’s present in the 128
	   bit string and false if all the bits are zero.

	     i.e.  if (hasbits($bits128)) {
		     &do_something;
		   }

	     or	   if (hasbits($bits128 & $mask128) {
		     &do_something;
		   }

	   This allows the implementation of logical functions of the form
	   of:

		   if ($bits128 & $mask128) {
		       ...

	     input:	   128 bit IPv6 string
	     returns:	   true if any bits are present

       * $rv = isIPv4($bits128);
	   This function returns true if there are no on bits present in the
	   IPv6 portion of the 128 bit string and false otherwise.

       * $bitsXn = shiftleft($bits128,$n);
	     input:	   128 bit string variable,
			   number of shifts [optional]
	     returns:	   bits X n shifts

	     NOTE: input bits are returned
		   if $n is not specified

       * addconst($ipv6naddr,$signed_32con);
	   Add a signed constant to a 128 bit string variable.

	     input:	   128 bit IPv6 string,
			   signed 32 bit integer
	     returns:  scalar	   carry
		       array	   (carry, result)

       * add128($ipv6naddr1,$ipv6naddr2);
	   Add two 128 bit string variables.

	     input:	   128 bit string var1,
			   128 bit string var2
	     returns:  scalar	   carry
		       array	   (carry, result)

       * sub128($ipv6naddr1,$ipv6naddr2);
	   Subtract two 128 bit string variables.

	     input:	   128 bit string var1,
			   128 bit string var2
	     returns:  scalar	   carry
		       array	   (carry, result)

	   Note: The carry from this operation is the result of adding the
	   one’s complement of ARG2 +1 to the ARG1. It is logically NOT bor-
	   row.

		   i.e.	   if ARG1 >= ARG2 then carry = 1
		   or	   if ARG1  < ARG2 then carry = 0

       * ($cidr,$spurious) = notcontiguous($mask128);
	   This function counts the bit positions remaining in the mask when
	   the rightmost ’0’s are removed.

		   input:  128 bit netmask
		   returns true if there are spurious
			       zero bits remaining in the
			       mask, false if the mask is
			       contiguous one’s,
			   128 bit cidr

       * $ipv6naddr = ipv4to6($netaddr);
	   Convert an ipv4 network address into an ipv6 network address.

	     input:	   32 bit network address
	     returns:	   128 bit network address

       * $ipv6naddr = mask4to6($netaddr);
	   Convert an ipv4 netowrk address into an ipv6 network mask.

	     input:	   32 bit network/mask address
	     returns:	   128 bit network/mask address

	   NOTE: returns the high 96 bits as one’s

       * $ipv6naddr = ipanyto6($netaddr);
	   Similar to ipv4to6 except that this function takes either an IPv4
	   or IPv6 input and always returns a 128 bit IPv6 network address.

	     input:	   32 or 128 bit network address
	     returns:	   128 bit network address

       * $ipv6naddr = maskanyto6($netaddr);
	   Similar to mask4to6 except that this function takes either an IPv4
	   or IPv6 netmask and always returns a 128 bit IPv6 netmask.

	     input:	   32 or 128 bit network mask
	     returns:	   128 bit network mask

       * $netaddr = ipv6to4($pv6naddr);
	   Truncate the upper 96 bits of a 128 bit address and return the
	   lower 32 bits. Returns an IPv4 address as returned by inet_aton.

	     input:	   128 bit network address
	     returns:	   32 bit inet_aton network address

       * $bcdtext = bin2bcd($bits128);
	   Convert a 128 bit binary string into binary coded decimal text
	   digits.

	     input:	   128 bit string variable
	     returns:	   string of bcd text digits

       * $bits128 = bcd2bin($bcdtxt);
	   Convert a bcd text string to 128 bit string variable

	     input:	   string of bcd text digits
	     returns:	   128 bit string variable
