Example:
<p>let input: [Int16] = [1, Int16.max, Int16.min]
<p>let data = Data(fromArray: input)print(data) // <0100ff7f 0080>
<p>let roundtrip = data.toArray(type: Int16.self)print(roundtrip) // [1, 32767, -32768]

data.getBytes
<pre><code>
For NSData:
<p>var values = [UInt8] (repeating:0, count:data!.length)data.getBytes(&values, length: data!.length)
<p>
<p>
For Data:
<p>var values = [UInt8] (repeating:0, count:data!.count)data.copyBytes(to: &values, count: data!.count)
</pre></code>
