TypedArr (TB01)

   1:  const buffer = new ArrayBuffer(4); // 4 bytes for a 32-bit integer

   2:  const view = new DataView(buffer);

   3:  

   4:  // Write a 32-bit integer in little-endian format

   5:  view.setInt32(0, 12345, true); // true for little-endian

   6:  

   7:  // Read the 32-bit integer in little-endian format

   8:  const littleEndianValue = view.getInt32(0, true);

   9:  console.log(littleEndianValue); // Output: 12345

  10:  

  11:  // Read the 32-bit integer in big-endian format

  12:  const bigEndianValue = view.getInt32(0, false);

  13:  console.log(bigEndianValue); // Output: 875770417 (different due to endianness)

Key Concepts of DataView:

    ArrayBuffer:
        A fixed-length raw binary data buffer.
        It doesn’t directly allow you to manipulate its data; you need a DataView or typed array to access it.

    DataView:
        Provides a view into an ArrayBuffer to read/write multi-byte data types.
        Allows you to specify endianness (little-endian or big-endian) for each operation.

    Endianness:
        Little-endian: The least significant byte (LSB) is stored at the lowest memory address.
        Big-endian: The most significant byte (MSB) is stored at the lowest memory address.

Common Methods:
        setInt8, setUint8, setInt16, setUint16, setInt32, setUint32, setFloat32, setFloat64
        getInt8, getUint8, getInt16, getUint16, getInt32, getUint32, getFloat32, getFloat64
