The meaning should be clear from the name - for example, `packInt32` packs a given javascript number into a 32-bit int inside a 4-byte node.js Buffer, while `unpackFloat32` unpacks a 4-byte node.js Buffer containing a native floating point number into a javascript number.\n\nThe following types are available for both pack and unpack:\n\n    Float32 \n    Float64 \n    Int8\n    Int16 \n    Int32\n    UInt8 \n    UInt16\n    UInt32\n    \nEach `pack*` function takes a javascript number and outputs a node.js Buffer.\n\nEach `unpack*` function takes a node.js Buffer and outputs a javascript number.\n\nBoth types of functions take an optional second argument.  If this argument is `\"big\"`, the output is put in big endian format.  If the argument is `\"little\"`, the output is put in little endian format.  If the argument is anything else or non-existent, we default to \"little\" endian [THIS IS NEW BEHAVIOR IN 0.0.15 - previous version would default to the native encoding.].\n",
