    "Little Endian" means that the lower order byte of the number is stored in memory at the lowest address, and the higher order byte is stored at the highest address. "Big endian" means. That the higher order bit is stored in the lowest address and the lower order bit at the highest. Address. A 4 byte, 32-bit integer Byte3 Byte2 Byte1 Byte0 will be arranged in memory as follows: Base_Address+

    Little Endian means that the lower order byte of the number is stored in memory at the lowest address,

    and the higher order byte is stored at the highest addres s. That is, the little end comes first. For example, a 4 byte, 32-bit integer Byte3 Byte2 Byte1 Byte0 will be arranged in memory as follows: Base_Address+0 Base_Address+1 Base_Address+2 Base_Address+3 Byte0 Byte1 Byte2 Byte3

    Example :Intel processors use "Little Endian" byte order. "Big Endian" means that the higher order byte of the number is stored in memory at the lowest address, and the lower order byte at the highest address. The big end comes first. Base_Address+0 Base_Address+1 Base_Address+2 Base_Address+3 Byte3 Byte2 Byte1 Byte0

    Motorola, Solaris processors use "Big Endian" byte order.
