im tying to get my local ip then generate a range list then ping each one of them to check who is live and who is dead
this is my code :

import socket
import ipaddress
import os
import nmap

getmy_ip = socket.gethostname()
getmy_ip = socket.gethostbyname(getmy_ip)

net4 = ipaddress.ip_network("192.168.1.0/24")
for x in net4.hosts():
    ping = os.popen("ping {x}").read()
    


    #scan1 = nmap.PortScanner()
    #scan1 = scan1.scan(str(x))
    #print(scan1)
    

Output:
ping: {x}: Name or service not known
ping: {x}: Name or service not known
ping: {x}: Name or service not known
ping: {x}: Name or service not known
ping: {x}: Name or service not known
ping: {x}: Name or service not known
ping: {x}: Name or service not known
ping: {x}: Name or service not known
ping: {x}: Name or service not known
ping: {x}: Name or service not known
ping: {x}: Name or service not known
ping: {x}: Name or service not known
ping: {x}: Name or service not known
ping: {x}: Name or service not known
ping: {x}: Name or service not known
ping: {x}: Name or service not known
ping: {x}: Name or service not known
ping: {x}: Name or service not known
ping: {x}: Name or service not known
ping: {x}: Name or service not known

why and how i can solve it in simple why please :(

f"ping {x}" - make it f-string. Also better use subprocess.run()

never mind, I thought of you using os.system(), os.popen() is implemented with subprocess.
But you can look at the docs
