/nuksee probl@m/ , n. Refers to the problem of transferring data between
|
|
|
|
|
machines with differing byte-order. The string UNIX might look like NUXI on
|
|
|
|
|
a machine with a different byte sex (e.g., when transferring data from a
|
|
|
|
|
little-endian to a big-endian , or vice-versa). See also middle-endian ,
|
|
|
|
|
swab , and bytesexual.
