The given was to parse domain-names, but both routines pulled out sub-domains as well. Perhaps I am wrong in my understanding of what a domain name is, but I would normally look at sub domains as not part of the "domain name". Sub domains are simply extensions of the domain name, am I right or wrong?
    Technically, a domain name is anything from the TLD and SLD levels
and below. An FQDN (commonly called a "hostname") is in the format cname.sld.tld.
Additionally, extracting top level domains is not so simple since it may have 2 or more parts.
