Integer endianness in binaries

[Gleb Peregud]

Hello.

These

[0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1] = [ X || <<X:1>> <= <<1>> ].
[0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0] = [ X || <<X:1>> <= <<2>> ].
[0,0,0,0,0,0,1,1] = [ X || <<X:1>> <= <<3>> ].
[0,0,0,0,1,1,1,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0] = [ X || <<X:1>> <=
<<15:2/little-integer-unit:8>> ].

are true and does not fail. But this:

> [0,0,0,1,1,1,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0] = [ X || <<X:1>> <= <<15:2/little-integer-unit:7>> ].
** exception error: no match of right hand side value
[0,0,0,0,1,1,1,1,0,0,0,0,0,0]

fails with given badmatch. Why is it so? Am I missing something?
Shouldn't <<15:2/little-integer-unit:7>> be the same as <<15:7, 0:7>>
? Instead it is equal to <<15:8, 0:6>>.

Best regards,
Gleb
