`byte[]` `getBytes()` Get value as four bytes in big endian byte order.
`static byte[]` `getBytes(long value)` Get value as four bytes in big endian byte order.
`long` `getValue()` Get value as Java long.
`static long` `getValue(byte[] bytes)` Helper method to get the value as a Java long from a four-byte array
`static long` `getValue(byte[] bytes, int offset)` Helper method to get the value as a Java long from four bytes starting at given array offset
