158. Byte Splitter Union

Your task is to define a union that allows viewing a 16-bit unsigned value both as a full word and as two separate bytes on a little-endian system.

The union must contain:

• uint16_t word
• uint8_t bytes[2]

Assume the target system uses little-endian byte order, where:

• bytes[0] contains the least significant byte (LSB)
• bytes[1] contains the most significant byte (MSB)

The program will:

1. Read a 16-bit unsigned integer from input
2. Assign it to the union
3. Print the LSB and MSB values as decimal numbers

Example:

Input

4660 

Output

LSB=52 MSB=18 

Explanation

4660 = 0x1234

• LSB = 0x34 = 52
• MSB = 0x12 = 18

Constraints

• Input range: 0 to 65535
• Target architecture: little-endian
• No overflow handling is required beyond uint16_t
