# bops
buffer/typed array agnostic buffer operations.
```javascript
var binary = require('bops')
binary.readUInt8(new Buffer(10), 0) // === 10
```
in browser, will default to using `Uint8Array` instances.
in node, will default to using `Buffer` instances.

#### bops.from(str, encoding="utf8") -> buf
given a string (and optional encoding) return a native buffer instance.
also accepts arrays.
#### bops.to(buf, encoding="utf8") -> str
given a native buffer (and optional encoding) return a string.
#### bops.is(buf) -> bool
given a native buffer returns true. Returns false for other values.
#### bops.subarray(buf, start[, end]) -> buf
return a view onto the original buffer.
#### bops.join([buf, buf, buf]) -> buf
compile several buffers into a single buffer.
#### bops.create(size) -> buf
create a native buffer instance of `size`.
#### bops.copy(source, target, target_start, source_start, source_end)
perform a fast copy from one native buffer to another.
