'''
1. Byte order, Size, Alignment
-------------------------------------------------------------
Character 	Byte order 	        Size 	    Alignment
-------------------------------------------------------------
@ 	        native 	                native 	    native  ==> default
= 	        native 	                standard    none
< 	        little-endian 	        standard    none
> 	        big-endian 	        standard    none
! 	        network (= big-endian) 	standard    none
-------------------------------------------------------------

1). byte order: Native byte order is big-endian or little-endian, depending on the host system.
    ①Intel X86 / AMD64(x86-64) ==> little-endian
    ②Motorola 68000 / PowerPC G5 ==> big-endian
    ③ARM / Intel Itanium feature switchable endianness (bi-endian)
2). size:
    ①Native size are determined using the C compiler's sizeof expression.
    ②Standard size depends only on the 'format character'
3). alignment:
