little-end-first

listen to the pronunciation of little-end-first
Turkish - English
(Bilgisayar) little-endian
Of a computer, storing the most significant byte of a multibyte number at a higher address than the least significant byte; that is, "little end" first
adj Describes a computer architecture in which, within a given 16- or 32-bit word, bytes at lower addresses have lower significance (the word is stored `little-end-first') The PDP-11 and VAX families of computers and Intel microprocessors and a lot of communications and networking hardware are little-endian See {big-endian}, {middle-endian}, {NUXI problem} The term is sometimes used to describe the ordering of units other than bytes; most often these are bits within a byte
a way to store the data writing the least-significant byte (LSB) at the lowest address in a word
An ordering of bytes and bits in which the lowest-address byte and lowest-numbered bit are the least-significant (low) byte and bit, respectively Compare endian orientation, big-endian, low and high
A format for storage or transmission of binary data in which the least significant byte (bit) comes first See big-endian
A type of byte ordering (used by IBM-compatible personal computers) in which the most significant bytes are in the higher, or rightmost, storage locations for each multi-byte value Unlike big-endian, the number of byes in each value determines the exact ordering of the bytes For example, the four characters "UNIX" are stored as "NUXI" on a little-endian computer
A common difference between machines is the order in which they store the individual bytes of multi-byte numerical data A little-endian machine stores the lower-order bytes before the higher-order bytes See big-endian
A computer architecture that stores multiple-byte numerical values with the least significant byte (LSB) values first
computer that has memory and stores the least significant byte in the lowest address (and the most significant byte in the highest address)
A format for storage or transmission of binary data in which the least significant byte (bit) comes first
A way of storing multi-byte pieces of data in memory in which the least significant byte is stored in the lowest memory location Also called "LSB first"
Data formatting in which each field is addressed by referring to its least significant byte See also big-endian
