=====Bitset Operators=====
Syntax:
#include
!=, ==, &=, ^=, |=, ~, <<=, >>=, [], =
These operators all work with bitsets. They can be described as follows:
^ Operator ^ Description ^
| ''!='' |returns true if the two bitsets are not equal|
| ''=='' |returns true if the two bitsets are equal|
| ''&='' |performs the AND operation on the two bitsets|
| ''^='' |performs the XOR operation on the two bitsets|
| ''|='' |performs the OR operation on the two bitsets|
| ''~'' |reverses the bitset (same as calling flip())|
| ''%%<<=%%'' |shifts the bitset to the left|
| ''%%>>=%%'' |shifts the bitset to the right|
| ''b[x]'' |returns a reference to the xth bit in the bitset|
| ''='' |take an unsigned long and put the corresponding bits in the bitset|
For example, the following code creates a bitset and shifts it to the left 4
places:
// create a bitset out of a number
bitset<8> bs2( (long) 131 );
// you can do bitset<8> bs2; bs2 = (long) 131;
cout << "bs2 is " << bs2 << endl;
// shift the bitset to the left by 4 digits
bs2 <<= 4;
cout << "now bs2 is " << bs2 << endl;
When the above code is run, it displays:
bs2 is 10000011
now bs2 is 00110000
