Before you open the box and smell it, all you have is the name.

Quick answer here - I'll make two assumptions:
1) This is NOT for a programming assignment. ;-)
2) Using the comma within a condition is treated as AND (&&). That's
messier code than I usually create.
Making the z = x + y assignment is part of the loop's condition, so it is

Sure, you may have many different networks all using the same subnet
