Data.Memory.Endian

Description

 

Synopsis

Documentation

data Endianness Source #

represent the CPU endianness

Big endian system stores bytes with the MSB as the first byte. Little endian system stores bytes with the LSB as the first byte.

middle endian is purposely avoided.

Constructors

LittleEndian
