bit.bswap Synchronous

Reverse the order of a number’s four bytes. Use it when a 32-bit value arrives in the opposite byte order from the one your binary format expects.

Syntax

Luau

bit.bswap(value: number) -> number

Parameters

Function parameters
Parameter	Type	Description
`value`	`number`	Finite number interpreted as an unsigned 32-bit value.

Returns

number

An unsigned 32-bit result represented as a Luau number.

Differences from Volt

Volt documents its Bit Library setting as disabled by default. Kawaii enables bit by default. Disabling the setting removes the bit global and makes retained function references reject calls.

Availability

Bit is enabled by default. The bit global is removed when disabled, and its operations check the setting.

Example

Luau

print(bit.tohex(bit.bswap(0x12345678))) -- 78563412
