Great question! Let’s break down the difference between a **URL address** and a **number address** (which usually refers to an **IP address**)—they’re both ways to locate things on the internet, but they work at different levels:
—
### 🌐 **URL (Uniform Resource Locator)**
– A **URL** is the full web address you type into your browser.
– It includes:
– **Protocol**: `https://`
– **Domain name**: `www.example.com`
– **Path**: `/page`
– **Query string**: `?id=123`
– Example: `https://www.example.com/page?id=123`
🔎 Think of it like a **complete mailing address**—it tells your browser exactly where to go and what to retrieve.

### 🔢 **IP Address (Number Address)**
– An **IP address** is a **numerical label** assigned to each device on a network.
– Example (IPv4): `192.168.1.1`
– Example (IPv6): `2001:0db8:85a3::8a2e:0370:7334`
– It’s how computers **identify and communicate** with each other.
🧠 Your browser uses a system called **DNS (Domain Name System)** to convert the domain in a URL into an IP address—just like looking up a contact’s number in your phone.

A URL address (like ‘google.com’) is human-friendly, easy to remember, and points to websites. A numeric IP address (like ‘172.217.0.46’) is the actual machine-readable location of that site. URLs rely on DNS to translate them into IPs. Think of a URL as a contact name and the IP as the phone number behind it
