Etymology

A variable utilized as a discrete collection of bits is referred to as a bit vector.

Synopsis

Bit vectors are an efficent method of keeping True/False information on a set of items or conditions. Class BitVector provides functions to manipulate individual bits in the vector and to perform logical operations on whole bit vectors.

Example

// Create a bit vector with 20 bits (and set them all to False). 
BitVector bv (20, False);
 
// Change some individual bits:
// Turn On (make True) bit 19.
bv.setBit (19);
// Turn Off (make False) bit 12 (superfluous here).
bv.clearBit (12);
// Toggle bit 5 (here: change value from 0 (False) to 1 (True)).
bv.toggleBit (5)
// Another way of setting a bit using the index operator.
bv[0] = True;
// Assign the value of bit 0 to bit 1  (in three ways).
bv[1] = bv.getBit(0);
bv[1] = bv[0];
bv.putBit (1, bv.getBit(0));
 
// Show the bit vector size and its value on standard output.
cout << "Size of bit vector:  "<< b.nbits() <<"\n";
cout << "Value of bit vector: "<< bv        <<"\n";
 
// Perform logical operations on bit vectors.
// Create two more bit vectors.
BitVector bv2 (40, False);
BitVector bv3 (40, True);
// bitwise OR
bv = bv2 | bv3;
// bitwise AND
bv = bv2 & bv3;
// bitwise XOR
bv = bv2 ^ bv3;
// bitwise NOT
bv = ~bv2;
 
// Reset all bits to False, and then to True
bv = False;
bv.set (True);
// Change the vector's size to 10 (and copy the old values).
bv.resize (10);
// Change back to original size and set all bits to True.
void bv.resize (size, True, False);
