/**
* This interface allows writing of primitive data types (integers,
* floating-point values, booleans, etc.) to a stream in a binary, untagged,
* fixed-endianness format. This might be used, for example, to implement
* network protocols or to produce architecture-neutral binary disk files,
* i.e. ones that can be read and written by both big-endian and little-endian
* platforms. Output is written in big-endian order (high-order byte first),
* as this is traditional network order.
