The following table lists the names used in this book to describe the various data field formats employed 
in host input calls. Numeric constants used by the host input API or host input import tool are typically 
unsigned integer values. Bit fields use low order bits unless otherwise noted. For example, in a one-byte 
field that contains five bits of flag data, the low order five bits will contain the data.

The following describes some of the topics explained in the documentation and where to look for more 
information.

uint

Unsigned integer

uint8

Unsigned 8-bit integer

uint32

Unsigned 32-bit integer

string

Variable length bytes containing character data.

[n]

Array subscript following any of the above data types to indicate n instances 
of the indicated data type, for example, uint8[4] is an array of four 8-bit 
elements.
