Try it
Description
The byteOffset property is an accessor property whose set accessor function is undefined, meaning that you can only read this property. The value is established when an DataView is constructed and cannot be changed.
Examples
Using the byteOffset property
js
const buffer = new ArrayBuffer(8);
const dataview = new DataView(buffer);
dataview.byteOffset; // 0 (no offset specified)
const dataview2 = new DataView(buffer, 3);
dataview2.byteOffset; // 3 (as specified when constructing the DataView)
