Description
bit.bswap is part of the Bit operations library. The bit library performs 32-bit integer arithmetic with Luau bit32 semantics; inputs and results are normalized to 32 bits.
The operation is performed immediately using the arguments supplied at the call site.

print(string.format("%08X", bit.bswap(0x12345678)))Notes
- Values are normalized to 32-bit integers before and after each operation.
