What is endianness of a processor Little endian and Big endian

        What is endianness of a processor Little endian and Big endian         

Endianness of a processor

If the size of data type is more than one byte then endanness decide the memory representation of data type. There are two types of microprocessor according to endianness.

Little-endian Format:

The processors which follow the following memory representation of data are known as little-endian processor.

little endian format

First A will fill then B then C then D then E and so on from right to left. Example of processor: 8085, 8086, 8088, 80286, 80386, p1, p2 etc.

Big-endian Format:

big endian format

The processors which follow the following memory representation of data are known as big-endian processor.
  

First A will fill then B then C then D then E from right to left. Example of processor: Motorola, IBM PC etc.
