Big-endian definition
Multiple byte data values (not strings) are stored with the highest order byte first. For example, the long integer
&H01020304 is stored as this sequence of four bytes: &H01, &H02, &H03 and &H04. A Binary or Random file
written using Put
uses little-endian format so that it can be read using Get on any machine. (Big-endian machines,
like the Power-PC, reverse the bytes as they are read by Get
or written by Put.)
