Bitwise

local Bitwise = require("Starlit/utils/Bitwise")

The Bitwise module defines some bitwise operation helper functions. These are generally faster than other implementations I’ve come across.

Functions

Bitwise.get(int: integer, pos: integer) → bit: boolean

Checks the value of a single bit within an integer.

Parameters:

• int (integer) – The integer.

• pos (integer) – Position of the bit, counting from the right, starting with 1.

Returns:

bit (boolean) – The value of the bit.

Bitwise.set(int: integer, pos: integer, value: boolean) → int: integer

Returns the passed integer int modified with the specified bit changed.

Parameters:

• int (integer) – The integer to modify.

• pos (integer) – The position of the bit to modify.

• boolean (value) – The value to set the bit to.

Returns:

int (integer) – The modified integer.
