writeInt
WriteInt is a generic programming term for a function or method that outputs an integer value to an output destination. It is not a universal standard; the exact behavior varies by language and library. In binary-writing APIs, writeInt typically writes the integer using a fixed width (for example 16, 32, or 64 bits) and a defined byte order. Endianness matters for interoperability across systems.
In Java, the DataOutputStream class provides a method writeInt(int v) that writes four bytes in big-endian order
Some libraries expose functions named writeInt intended for binary protocols, where the integer is serialized in
Common considerations include: the size of the integer on the target platform, how many bytes are written,
In practice, developers will encounter writeInt as part of a larger I/O framework or protocol library. When
