NAME

u16_pack, u16_unpack, u16_pack_big, u16_unpack_big - store/read an u16 into/from a byte array

SYNOPSIS

#include <limb/u16.h>

void u16_pack(void *dst, u16 val)
void u16_unpack(u16 *val, const void *sce)

void u16_pack_big(void *dst, u16 val)
void u16_unpack_big(u16 *val, const void *sce)

DESCRIPTION

All of these aim to either store the given number val into the specified byte array dst, or read a number from the specified byte array sce and set the value pointed by val to its value.

The u16_pack() function stores the number val into the 2 bytes pointed by dst, encoded as little endian.

The u16_unpack() function reads 2 bytes pointed by sce as little endian encoded number, setting the value pointed by val to its value.

The u16_pack_big() function is similar to u16_pack() only as big endian.

The u16_unpack_big() function is similar to u16_unpack() only as big endian.
