These formulas and examples are incorrect. IP Addresses will never be represented as all of their digits with the decimal points removed. That would be a useless number. If you did that, there would be no way to tell if 10255221 was supposed to be 10.255.22.1 or 102.55.22.1 or 102.55.2.21? These are all valid IP addresses.

Dotted decimal notation (IP addresses) is just another form of notation, like binary or hexadecimal. It is 4, 8-bit, binary numbers, written in decimal notation, separated by decimal points. You can convert the numbers from one form to the other.

For example:
10.255.22.1 = 00001010.11111111.00010110.00000001 = 0a.ff.16.01 (0x0aff1601)
00001010 = 10 = 0xa
11111111 = 255 = 0xff
00010110 = 22 = 0x16
00000001 = 1 = 0x1
00001010111111110001011000000001 = 184489473 = 0xaff1601 = 10.255.22.1

In decimal notation, 10.255.22.1 = 184489473.
But 10.255.22.1 DOES NOT = 10255221. Ever.
