Lastest release
version 3.3 on Jan 9th, 2014
This class presents a pure-Python memory-efficient packed representation for bit arrays.
Version 3.3 includes one more constructor mode: You can now construct a bit vector from the bytes data type. This version also includes a couple of bug fixes.
Version 3.2 includes support for constructing bit vectors directly from text strings and hex strings.
Version 3.1.1 removes the incompatibility of the module test code with how Python 2.7 expects its string input for creating memory files. This version of the module should work with all recent versions of Python 2.x and with Python 3.x.
The class is provided with the following operators/methods:
- __getitem__
- __setitem__
- __len__
- __iter__
- __contains__
- __getslice__
- __str__
- __int__
- __add__
