Description

Code:

public static void main(String[] args) {

double[] tests = new double[]

{34.345, -345.5645, 545.12, 10.043, 7.123456789123}

;
for (int i = 0; i< tests.length ;i++)

{ byte[] buffer = new byte[8]; EndianUtils.writeSwappedDouble(buffer, 0, tests[i]); double val = EndianUtils.readSwappedDouble(buffer, 0); System.out.println(val); }

}

Result:
34.344969482421874
-345.5645
545.11951171875
10.043
7.123456789123

Note:
In my opinion the values shouldn't be changed at all.
