Big endian and little endian have to do with where the least significant bit is represented. Big endian stores the least significant bit first, while little endian stores it last. Many old Mac and SPARC machines were big endian, while the majority of home computers are little endian.

How hardware relate data (8,16,32,64 etc) over a device for example memory device A shot (16bits) number represented in Big Endian will look like: 0xabcd Where as in Little Endian will look like: 0xcdab
