It’s common in systems code to need to switch data between big-endian and little-endian representations. This is because networks represent multi-byte integers using big-endian representation (the most-significant byte in a multi-byte integer is transmitted first), whereas x86-family processors store multi-byte integers using little-endian representation (the least-significant byte in a multi-byte integer is stored first).

1. Complete this function, which translates an integer from big-endian representation to little-endian representation by swapping bytes. For instance, big_to_little(0x01020304) should return 0x04030201. Your return statement must refer to the u.c array, and must not refer to x. This function is compiled on x86-64 Linux (as every function is unless we say otherwise).

unsigned big_to_little(unsigned x) {
union {
unsigned intval;
unsigned char c[4];
} u;
u.intval = x;

return ______________________________________;
}


2. Complete the function again, but this time you should write a single expression that refers to x (possibly multiple times).

unsigned big_to_little(unsigned x) {

return ______________________________________;
}
