    C Program for testing Endian-ness with requirements

    I need help writing a program that uses the functions:
    uint32_t htonl(uint32_t hostlong)
    uint32_t ntohl(uint32_t netlong)
    bool isBigEndian() //This is the function that will return a 1 if the host bye ordering is the same as the network byte ordering and will return a zero otherwise.

    Instructions state:
    -Write a function htonl in assembly that will accept an integer variable and covert it from host byte order to network byte order.
    -Write a function ntohl in assembly that will accept an integer in network byte order and return an integer in host byte order.

    Thank you!

    I guess you had better get on it then.

    Hope is the first step on the road to disappointment.
