endianess

Example:The byte order of the system is set to little-endian, meaning the least significant byte comes first in memory.

Definition:The order in which bytes of computer data are ordered in a multi-byte word; it can be either little-endian or big-endian.

Example:The endianness conflict was resolved by converting the byte order of the received data to match the system's format.

Definition:A problem that arises when a system or program designed for a specific byte order is run on or with systems using a different byte order.

Example:The new database system is endianness-aware, which means it can handle data from both big-endian and little-endian machines without any issues.

Definition:Refers to software or hardware that is designed to be compatible with both big-endian and little-endian byte order formats.
