I think the descriptions of endianness are off. Endianness doesn't affect the order of an array of bytes at all, only the rules for converting longer words to/f

I think the descriptions of endianness are off. Endianness doesn't affect the order of an array of bytes at all, only the rules for converting longer words to/from a byte array. [0xDE, 0xAD, 0xBE, 0xEF] will always be the same array of bytes, but 0xDEAFBEEF will not.
