	 * The Endian class contains values that denote the byte order used to
	 * represent multibyte numbers. The byte order is either bigEndian(most
	 * significant byte first) or littleEndian(least significant byte first).
	 *
	 * Content in Flash Player or Adobe<sup>®</sup> AIR™ can interface with
	 * a server by using the binary protocol of that server, directly. Some
	 * servers use the bigEndian byte order and some servers use the littleEndian
	 * byte order. Most servers on the Internet use the bigEndian byte order
	 * because "network byte order" is bigEndian. The littleEndian byte order is
	 * popular because the Intel x86 architecture uses it. Use the endian byte
	 * order that matches the protocol of the server that is sending or receiving
	 * data.
