There sort of is, it just doesn't help answer the question.
Both types of addresses have blocks explicitly carved out which are not unicast addresses to be routed over the public Internet. If you have one of those addresses, such as 192.168.0.1, that definitely isn't your "public Internet address" because people can't route stuff to it.
