Input Buffer and Output Buffer, just like Java [`ByteBuffer`](http://docs.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/nio/ByteBuffer.html).
```bash
$ npm install byte
```
All methods just like Java ByteBuffer, you find them out [here](http://docs.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/nio/ByteBuffer.html#method_summary).
```js
var ByteBuffer = require('byte');
var bb = ByteBuffer.allocate(1024);
bb.order(ByteBuffer.BIG_ENDIAN); // default is BIG_ENDIAN, you can change it to LITTLE_ENDIAN.
bb.put(0);
bb.put(new Buffer([0, 1, 2]));
bb.put(new Buffer([255, 255, 255, 255]), 10, 3);
bb.put(21, 100);
bb.putChar('a');
bb.putChar(10, 'b');
bb.putInt(1024);
bb.putInt(-100);
bb.putFloat(100.9);
bb.putLong(10000100009099);
bb.putLong('1152921504606847000');
bb.putShort(65535);
bb.putShort(-50000);
bb.putDouble(99.99999);
// wrap for read
var rb = ByteBuffer.wrap(new Buffer(100));
rb.getInt();
rb.getLong();
rb.getChar();
rb.get();
rb.getDouble();
rb.getFloat();
```

[Wed Nov 13 2013 17:01:50 GMT+0800 (CST)] Fastest is "putChar() "
```
## `Number` methods
```
putShort / putInt16
putUInt16
putInt / putInt32
putUInt / putUInt32
putInt64
putFloat
putDouble
getShort / getInt16
getUInt16
getInt / getInt32
getUInt / getUInt32
getInt64
getFloat
getDouble
```
## `String` methods
Java String format: `| length (4 bytes int) | string bytes |`
C String format: `| length + 1 (4 bytes int) | string bytes | \0 |`
Row String format: `string bytes`
### `putString()` and `putCString()` and `putRawString()`
```js
bb.putString('foo');
bb.putString(new Buffer('foo'));
bb.putCString('foo');
bb.putCString(new Buffer('foo'));
bb.putRawString('foo');
```
```js
bb.getString();
bb.getString(10);
bb.getCString();
bb.getCString(10);
bb.getRawString(0, 10);
bb.readRawString(10);
```
