Endianness is the order in which bytes of data are stored in computer memory. There are two main endianness formats: big-endian and little-endian. In big-endian, the most significant byte (MSB) is stored at the lowest memory address, while in little-endian, the least significant byte (LSB) is stored at the lowest memory address. The endianness of a computer system is typically determined by its CPU architecture. Endianness can cause problems when data is transferred between systems with different endianness formats.
