bit-long-vec

Vector with fixed bit sized values stored in long. Effective to reduce the amount of memory needed for storage values whose size is not a power of 2. As drawback to set and get values uses additional CPU cycles for bit operations.

Usage

Add this to your Cargo.toml:

toml [dependencies] bit-long-vec = "0.2"

Example

In this particular scenario, we want to store 10 bit values. It takes 200 bytes to store 100 values using short. To store 100 values using a bit long vector, 15 lengths are required, which is 120 bytes. (-40%).

```rust let mut vec = BitLongVec::withfixedcapacity(100, 10);

for index in 0..100 { vec.set(index, 1023);

assert_eq!(vec.get(index), 1023);

} ```
