Input Buffer and Output Buffer,
just like Java ByteBuffer.

Install

``bash
$ npm install byte --save
`

Usage

All methods just like Java ByteBuffer,
you find them out here.

`js
var ByteBuffer = require('byte');

var bb = ByteBuffer.allocate(1024);
bb.order(ByteBuffer.BIG_ENDIAN); // default is BIG_ENDIAN, you can change it to LITTLE_ENDIAN.
bb.put(0);
bb.put(new Buffer([0, 1, 2]));
bb.put(new Buffer([255, 255, 255, 255]), 10, 3);
bb.put(21, 100);

bb.putChar('a');
bb.putChar(10, 'b');

bb.putInt(1024);
bb.putInt(-100);

bb.putFloat(100.9);

bb.putLong(10000100009099);
bb.putLong('1152921504606847000');

bb.putShort(65535);
bb.putShort(-50000);

bb.putDouble(99.99999);

// wrap for read
var rb = ByteBuffer.wrap(new Buffer(100));
rb.getInt();
rb.getLong();
rb.getChar();
rb.get();
rb.getDouble();
rb.getFloat();
`
