record.newbyteorder()

record.newbyteorder(new_order='S')

Return a new dtype with a different byte order.

Changes are also made in all fields and sub-arrays of the data type.

The new_order code can be any from the following:

?S? - swap dtype from current to opposite endian
{?<?, ?L?} - little endian
{?>?, ?B?} - big endian
{?=?, ?N?} - native order
{?|?, ?I?} - ignore (no change to byte order)

Parameters:

Parameters:	new_order : str, optional Byte order to force; a value from the byte order specifications above. The default value (?S?) results in swapping the current byte order. The code does a case-insensitive check on the first letter of `new_order` for the alternatives above. For example, any of ?B? or ?b? or ?biggish? are valid to specify big-endian.
Returns:	new_dtype : dtype New `dtype` object with the given change to the byte order.

Returns:

new_dtype : dtype

New dtype object with the given change to the byte order.
