Ping your own computer

Report a typo

When testing network-related programs, programmers usually first check if the program is working correctly on their own computer, instead of sending out packets to the Internet. In such cases, sometimes they need to ping their own computer.

Write down the command you would use to ping your own computer.

Tip: Your own computer can be referenced using the IP address 127.0.0.1 or its alias keyword localhost.
