FixedBytes
##########

The ``FixedBytes`` class brings many of these operations together allowing developers to treat a ``byte[]`` as a more complex object without the need to explicitly call helper or extension methods. It acts as a wrapper around an array of bytes in BigEndian byte order.

Implements
**********

- ``IFormattable``
- ``IReadOnlyCollection<byte>``
- ``IEquatable<FixedBytes>``
- ``IEquatable<IEnumerable<byte>>``
- ``IComparable<FixedBytes>``
- ``IComparable<IEnumerable<byte>>``
- ``IComparable``

Operators
*********

.. note::  Operators, where pertinent, treat ``FixedBytes`` as unsigned big-endian integers

=======

- ``|`` - OR
- ``&`` - AND
- ``^`` - XOR

Comparison
==========

- ``>`` - Greater Than
- ``<`` - Less Than
- ``>=`` - Greater Than or Equal
