Network to Host Long Long

Since I'm applying for summer internships and employment now, I've been trying to hone my coding skills. I decided to implement my own version of network-to-host-long-long (ntohll) for 8-byte integers using bitwise operators in C. Operates similar to ntohs(short s).


This was for a group networking protocol assignment in my data networks class.


It was challenging, although time consuming, and later I found a much more elegant solution on the internet. But this my ugly bastard child and I'm keeping it.
