Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global objects/DataView/setInt16

The setInt16() method stores a signed 16-bit integer (short) value at the specified byte offset from the start of the DataView.

Syntax

dataview.setInt16(byteOffset, value [, littleEndian])

byteOffset: The offset, in byte, from the start of the view where to store the data.
value: The value to set.
littleEndian: Optional Indicates whether the 16-bit int is stored in little- or big-endian format. If false or undefined, a big-endian value is written.

RangeError: Thrown if the byteOffset is set such as it would store beyond the end of the view.

var buffer = new ArrayBuffer(8);
var dataview = new DataView(buffer);
dataview.setInt16(1, 3);
dataview.getInt16(1); // 3
