Byte type (basic data type)
Format
Data type explanation
- The byte type is expressed with eight bits. The data format of byte data is guaranteed; it is not changed when data is transmitted with RPC.
- The format of an integer type, character type, floating-point type, or the configuration type in which these types are combined may be converted if data is transmitted between hosts that use different data formats. If the data format should not be converted, transmit data as a byte type array.
- The efficiency of the byte type is higher than other data types since it is without format conversion.
