Writing to Files - Archive of obsolete content
write32 will write four bytes.
...the write32 method performs a similar operation except that the value 1000 is written using four bytes, padding the unused bits with zeroes.
... stream.write16(1000); stream.write32(1000); all values are read in big endian form, which means that integers are stored in the file with their higher bits first.
... for the write16 and write32 methods, the values are always interpreted as unsigned values.
