How do you find your own ip address in C programming on a linux machine?

#include %26lt;stdio.h%26gt;


#include %26lt;netdb.h%26gt;





int main()


{


char hostn[400]; //placeholder for the hostname


struct hostent *hostIP; //placeholder for the IP address





//if the gethostname returns a name then the program will get the ip


address using gethostbyname


if((gethostname(hostn, sizeof(hostn))) == 0)


{


hostIP = gethostbyname(hostn); //the netdb.h function gethostbyname


printf("IP address: %s\n", inet_ntoa(*(struct in_addr


*)hostIP-%26gt;h_addr));


}


else


{


printf("ERROR:FC4539 - IP Address not found."); //error if the


hostname is not found


}


return 0;


}
