Bit-Wise Operations

Set, shift, or compare specific bit fields

Bit-wise operators are used to change the bit patterns of numbers. These operations are efficient since they are directly supported by most CPUs. For more information, see Bit-Wise Operations.

Functions

`bitand`	Bit-wise AND
`bitor`	Bit-wise OR
`bitxor`	Bit-wise XOR
`bitcmp`	Bit-wise complement
`bitget`	Get bit at specified position
`bitset`	Set bit at specific location
`bitshift`	Shift bits specified number of places
`swapbytes`	Swap byte ordering
