== Origin of the Terms ==
The terms ''Big-Endian'' and ''Little-Endian'' originally appeared in the classic satirical tale [https://www.gutenberg.org/files/829/829-h/829-h.htm Gulliver's Travels] by Jonathan Swift, where they referred to which end of a boiled egg was to be opened first-- a distinction which led to ongoing conflict between small-minded people.
