Martin Panter added the comment: I wouldn’t mind the “host” byte order, assuming it just means use sys.byteorder. I think I have done this a few times, both when I really wanted the native byte order, and when I didn’t care, but assumed the native order might be slightly more efficient (e.g. bitwise arithmetic on 512-byte blocks).
But I don’t understand the point of “net” byte order. Wouldn’t it be the same as “big”? ---------- nosy: +martin.panter _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue27638> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
