Bit

bit is a library which provides some useful helpers for dealing with bits and bit ranges. For now it's just a rewrite of rust-bit-field crate, but more features are planned. Some of them could be:

• Support for arrays and slices.
• bitflags-like functionality.

Usage

Add to your Cargo.toml:

toml [dependencies] bit = "0.1"

And add to your code:

rust extern crate bit; use bit::BitIndex;

Example

```rust extern crate bit; use bit::BitIndex;

fn main() { let mut value = 0b11010110u8;

// 8
println!("{}", u8::bit_length());

// true
println!("{}", value.bit(1));

// 0b10
println!("{:#b}", value.bit_range(0..2));

value
    .set_bit(3, true)
    .set_bit(2, false)
    .set_bit_range(5..8, 0b001);

// 0b111010
println!("{:#b}", value);

} ```
