Little endian and big endian refer to the order in which
sequence of bytes are stored in computer memory. Big-endian
is the order in which the most significant byte is stored
first in the memory (at lowest storage address). Whereas
Little-endian is the order in which the least significant
byteis stored first in the memory. For e.g. in a big-endian
computer the hexadecimal number 3AFB would be stored as 3AFB
in memory (3A at memory address 4000 and FB at memory
address 4001), whereas in little endian the same hexadecimal
number 3AFB will be stored as FB3A (FB at memory address
4000 and 3A at memory address 4001)
