''' Byteorder utilities for system - numpy byteorder encoding
Converts a variety of string codes for little endian, big endian,
native byte order and swapped byte order to explicit numpy endian

Convert various order codings to numpy format.
Parameters
----------
code : str
The code to convert. It is converted to lower case before parsing.
Legal values are:
'little', 'big', 'l', 'b', 'le', 'be', '<', '>', 'native', '=',
'swapped', 's'.
Returns
-------
out_code : {'<', '>'}
Here '<' is the numpy dtype code for little endian,
and '>' is the code for big endian.
Examples
--------
>>> import sys
>>> sys_is_le == (sys.byteorder == 'little')
True
>>> to_numpy_code('big')
'>'
>>> to_numpy_code('little')
'<'
>>> nc = to_numpy_code('native')

True
