bits

The bits library contains functions related to bit operations.

//bits.set(n <: number) <: set#

set takes in the bitmask n and returns a set of integers representing n. The set itself contains the positions of 1-bits in the binary representation of n

n must be a non-negative number.

Usage:

exampleequals
//bits.set(42){1, 3, 5}
//bits.set(72061992084439040){42, 56}
//bits.set(0){}

//bits.mask(s <: set) <: number#

mask is the inverse of set. It takes a set s which represents the position of 1-bits in a binary representation of a bitmask and returns the bitmask.

s must be a set of numbers.

Usage:

exampleequals
//bits.mask({1, 3, 5})42
//bits.mask({42, 56})72061992084439040
//bits.mask({})0
