# load(fromByteOffset:as:_:) Returns a value constructed from the raw memory at the specified offset. ``` func load(fromByteOffset offset: Int, as type: T.Type, _ byteOrder: ByteOrder) -> T where T : ConvertibleFromBytes, T : FixedWidthInteger ``` ## Parameters `offset` The offset from the beginning of this span, in bytes. `offset` must be nonnegative. `type` The type of the instance to create. `byteOrder` The order in which the bytes will be decoded. ## Return Value A new value of type `T`, read from `offset`. ## Discussion The range of bytes required to construct a value of type `T` starting at `offset` must be completely within the span. `offset` is not required to be aligned for `T`. --- Copyright © 2026 Apple Inc.
