This is easily seen if we examine the cases where only one input is high table 7. This refers only to the ordering of the bytes, not to the bits. The least significant bit is represented by the lowest power of 2, bit 0.
In the above example, the most significant bit is the position representing the highest power of 2, which is bit 7. If the abbreviations meaning least significant byte isnt obvious from context, it should be stated explicitly to avoid confusion with least.

The music is largely composed by director and composer mitch bender and our group of highlyregarded composers. The x86 architecture is littleendian, meaning that multibyte values are written least significant byte first. For the examples in this book, i am using 32bit registers, so bit numbers. Overflow is when a carry of value 1 happens from the msb, because there are no more bits in the byte or word size left to carry over to. The lsb is then extracted and examined, if the lsb is a 1, the register is exclusive ored with a preset fixed value. With the lsb as bit 0, the bit number for the msb is dependent on the register size. It turns out ethernet frames are sent mostsignificant byte first, and within each byte, mostsignificant bit first.
Any number of data bytes can be transferred from the master to slave between the start and stop conditions. The lsb is sometimes referred to as the loworder bit or rightmost bit, due to the convention in positional notation of writing less significant digits further to the right.
