Indicates the byte order ("endianness") in which data is stored in this computer architecture.
Syntax
public static readonly bool IsLittleEndian
Remarks
This value is true if the architecture is little-endian; false if it is big-endian.
Different computer architectures store data using different byte orders. "Big-endian" means the most significant byte is on the left end of a word. "Little-endian" means the most significant byte is on the right end of a word.
