Types

Name	Length	Notes
Byte	1	0 to 255 unsigned \| -128 to +127 signed
Word	2	0 to 65,535 unsigned \| -32,768 to +32,767 signed
SWord*	3	0 to 16,777,215 unsigned \| −8,388,608 to 8,388,607 signed
DWord	4	0 to 4,294,967,295 unsigned \| -2,147,483,648 to 2,147,483,647 signed
QWord	8	0 to 18,446,744,073,709,551,615 unsigned \| -9,223,372,036,854,775,808 to 9,223,372,036,854,775,807 signed
String	1+	Newline-terminated, not null-terminated like C

*SWord means sesqui word, or one and a half words.

Byte Transformations

These transformations only apply to the least significant byte, regardless of the endianness.

Name	Operation
Add	byte + 128
Subtract	128 - byte
Negate	-byte

Byte Order

Also known as Endianness.

Name	Order
Big	4, 3, 2, 1
Little	1, 2, 3, 4
Middle-Big*	3, 4, 1, 2
Middle-Little*	2, 1, 4, 3

*Middle-Big and Middle-Little are not a standard order or naming scheme. I call them that because they start with the big significant bytes or the little significant bytes.
