The setInt16() method stores a signed 16-bit integer
(short) value at the specified byte offset from the start of the DataView.
Syntax
setInt16(byteOffset, value)
setInt16(byteOffset, value, littleEndian)
Parameters
byteOffset-
The offset, in byte, from the start of the view where to store the data.
value-
The value to set.
littleEndian-
Optional Indicates whether the 16-bit int is stored in little- or big-endian format. If
falseorundefined, a big-endian value is written.
Return value
Errors thrown
RangeError-
Thrown if the
byteOffsetis set such as it would store beyond the end of the view.
Examples
