> When using little-endian, you imagine that the bits are in little-endian order, to be consistent with the bytes, and then everything is nice and consistent. But isn't that kind of at odds with how shifting works? (i.e. that a left shift moves towards the "bigger" bits and a right shift moves toward the "smaller" ones.) Perhaps for a Hebrew or Arabic speaker this all works out nicely, but for those of us accustomed to progressing from left to right it seems a bit backwards... |
