1. Convert an Int variable into NSData, a packet of bytes.

   int myScore = 0;
   NS         
   
   
           

Answer 1

Depending on the size of Int you are working with, a straight forward approach is to init Data with Sequence of UInt8:

let value: Int = 100
let data = Data([UInt8(value)])
// OR
let data = Data([0xFF, 0xFE])
