Detailed explanation-1: -The Domain Name System (DNS) maps human-readable domain names (in URLs or in email address) to IP addresses. For example, DNS translates and maps the domain freecodecamp.org to the IP address 104.26. 2.33.
Detailed explanation-2: -How DNS works. DNS servers convert URLs and domain names into IP addresses that computers can understand and use. They translate what a user types into a browser into something the machine can use to find a webpage. This process of translation and lookup is called DNS resolution.
Detailed explanation-3: -DNS, or the Domain Name System, translates human readable domain names (for example, www.amazon.com) to machine readable IP addresses (for example, 192.0.2.44).
