byteReverse

byteReverse

> Functions

Returns the number obtained by reversing the order of the 8 bytes of the 64-bit integer x: the least significant byte becomes the most significant byte, and so on. The bits inside each byte do not move. The original number is not modified.

This is the endianness swap operation. The reversal always covers all 8 bytes, including leading null bytes: byteReverse(1) returns 72057594037927936, that is 1 followed by 56 zeros in binary.

Parameters

• x: The 64-bit integer whose bytes will be reversed.

Return

• reversed: The number whose bytes are those of x in reverse order.
