Endian
ex)
When putting 16-bit numeric data consisting of 2 bytes into memory,
1. Put bytes into memory in array order.
(Big Endian)
2. Put the lower byte into memory first (Little endian)
(Little endian)
Maybe)
The method of inserting the lower byte first is a method that is advantageous in terms of speed
because when performing calculations, the lower byte used first is taken out of memory in order.
(byte order is stored in reverse)
Nowadays, memory speed is much faster, so it doesn't mean much.
Intel CPUs use the lower-first method,
Big Endian is the standard in network communication.
In Intel computers, you must pay attention to Endian when handling data transmitted over the
network.
The same applies when transmitting,
