What is the total amount of public IPv4 addresses

Question

Yes  I am needing to know what the total number possible IPs in the public IPv4 space    I m not sure where to even get a neat list of all the IP address ranges  so could someone point me to a resource to calculate this myself or calculate the total number of IPs for me    Also  by Public IPs I mean not counting reserved or private-range IP addresses   Only the ones that can be access through the internet

Just a small correction for Marko s answer  exact number can t be produced out of some general calculations straight forward due to the next fact  Valid IP addresses should also not end with binary 0 or 1 sequences that have same length as zero sequence in subnet mask  So the final answer really depends on the total number of subnets  Marko s answer - 2   total subnet count
