Hex Workshop supports both Big Endian and Little Endian byte ordering. These terms are used to describe the order in which bytes are stored in memory.

In Big Endian byte ordering, the most significant byte is stored first. For example, the decimal number 1,000 would be stored as 0x03E8 and the decimal number 100,000 would be stored as 0x000186A0.

In Little Endian byte ordering, the least significant byte is stored first. For example, the decimal number 1,000 would be stored as 0xE803 and the decimal number 100,000 would be stored as 0xA0860100

You can observe that changing the most significant or first byte of a Big Endian number from 0x03E8 to 0x04E8 (decimal 1,256) causes a more significant change than changing the least significant or first byte of Little Endian number 0xE803 to 0xF803 (decimal 1,016).

Hex Workshop will interpret these decimal values based on the byte ordering environment settings. You can also use the Byte Flip operation to convert between different byte orderings.
