Name
BitArray
Synopsis
This class stores a
collection of bit values as
Boolean types. The constructor takes many different forms of input to
build the initial array, including arguments that specify the initial
values and the size of the array. You can construct the
BitArray with an existing array of bools, or with
a byte or integer array. With an integer array, each
int value becomes 32 bits of the
BitArray, with the least significant bit mapped to
the lowest index value (MyBitArray[0]) of the
32-bit range. A byte array uses 8 bits for each value in a similar
fashion. A “bare” array can be
constructed by simply providing an integer value for the number of
bits in the BitArray, which are all set to
false by default. Provide an additional Boolean
value as a second argument to set the default values to either
true or false.
The main functions of the BitArray class allow you
to perform bitwise operations with two BitArrays
of the same length. There are methods for And( ),
Or( ), and Xor( ) that
correspond to their respective bitwise operations. The Not( ) method inverts each bit value in the
BitArray.
