-It's not hugely important that you understand little-endian and two's complement representations -- 95% of all processors use little-endian and two's complement. ​ So you basically read the bytes into memory and tell the processor there'​s an integer there and it will happily interpret it correctly. ​ But it's good to know, and required information for the protocol to work correctly.+It's not hugely important that you understand little-endian and two's complement representations -- 95% of all processors use little-endian and two's complement. ​ So you basically read the bytes into memory and tell the processor there'​s an integer thereand it will happily interpret it correctly. ​ But it's good to know, and required information for the protocol to work correctly.
