Filename: little_endian_file_read.vi
Requirements: View
This VI reads a little endian binary file. Before LabVIEW 8, file I/O VIs always read in big endian format. Therefore, to decipher a little endian data point, you had to reverse the byte order and then cast the bytes to a particular data type.
