So what is the common notation in East Asia? You say big-endian. Is that 1999-Jan-3?
In Japan, the notation like '1999(year)1(month)3(day)' is common. We have single characters for each unit. Using symbols, we write '1999/1/3'. For numbers, we also read all the digits from left to right. I think there is no significant exception in big-endian. -- hideyuki
