`bitfield` is a module for manipulating arrays of bits,
|
|
|
|
i.e. series of zeroes and ones spread across an
|
|
|
|
array of storage units (unsigned 32-bit integers).

Bit arrays are stored in data structures called 'BitField'. The structure is
|
|
|
|
'opaque', i.e. its internals are not available to the end user. This module
|
|
|
|
provides API (functions and methods) for accessing and modifying bit arrays.
