Big endian and little endian

1、Motorola Of PowerPC series CPU：big endian, Low address stores the most significant bytes （MSB） 2、Intel Of x86 series CPU：little endian, The low address stores the least significant byte （LSB）. for example ：0x12345678 (12 Is a highly significant byte ....) 3、C/C++ The order of data storage in a program written in this language is the same as that of the compilation platform CPU dependent , and JAVA The only program written is big endian Way to store data .

4、 All network protocols also use big endian The way to transmit data . http://blog.csdn.net/sunshine1314/article/details/2309655
