# Documentation

data Endianness #

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.

fromBE :: ByteSwap a => BE a -> a #

Convert from a big endian value to the cpu endianness

toBE :: ByteSwap a => a -> BE a #

Convert a value in cpu endianess to big endian

fromLE :: ByteSwap a => LE a -> a #

Convert from a little endian value to the cpu endianness

toLE :: ByteSwap a => a -> LE a #
