Basic Examples (1) 

Use the function:

In[1]:=

Out[1]=

Scope (4) 

Retrieve the ResourceFunction:

In[2]:=

Out[2]=

Retrieve the ResourceObject:

In[3]:=

Out[3]=

When the content is PrintableASCIIQ, it will appear as plain text:

In[4]:=

Out[4]=

In[5]:=

Out[5]=

When content is mixed, the non-printable bytes are rendered as color-coded hex values:

In[6]:=

Out[6]=

In[7]:=

Out[8]=

Generalizations & Extensions (2) 

Visualize the binary data contained in a file:

In[9]:=

Out[9]=

Only view the first 10 bytes:

In[10]:=

Out[10]=

View the contents of a CloudObject:

In[11]:=

Out[11]=

In[12]:=

Out[12]=

In[13]:=

Out[13]=

View the bytes of the WXF format directly:

In[14]:=

Out[14]=

Applications (1) 

Compare binary formats:

In[15]:=

Out[15]=

In[16]:=

Out[16]=

In[17]:=

Out[17]=

In[18]:=

Out[18]=

Properties and Relations (1) 

Packed arrays are aptly named:

In[19]:=

In[20]:=

Out[20]=

In[21]:=

Out[21]=

In[22]:=

Out[22]=

In[23]:=

Out[23]=

Possible Issues (2) 

By default, only the first 1024 bytes are shown:

In[24]:=

Out[24]=

Use the second argument to view more:

In[25]:=

Out[25]=
