title: what order does AudioRecord class of Android store the audio samples in?
body: <p>If I call the read() method, as  </p>
  
  <pre><code>record.read(lin, 0, R_fft);  
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>where <code>lin</code> is a short array of size 256 and <code>R_fft</code> is 8, in what order does the read() function store the audio samples from MIC in? For instanc, is it  </p>
  
  <pre><code>lin[0] -&gt; oldest sample  
  .  
  .  
  lin[8] -&gt; newest sample  
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>or is it the other way round, that is  </p>
  
  <pre><code>lin[0] -&gt; newest sample  
  .  
  .  
  lin[8] -&gt; oldest sample  
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>or do the samples go towards the higher end of the <code>lin[]</code> array, that is towards, <code>lin[248]</code> to <code>lin[255]</code>? </p>
