Usage
value = bit.get(value1, index)
value1
index
value
Remarks • This function returns the value of the bit in value1 at the given index. This is the same
as returning value1 with all other non-indexed bits set to zero.
• Prior to retrieving the indexed bit, any fractional part of the given number will be truncated
to make it an integer. The least significant bit of the given number has an index of 1 and
the most significant bit has an index of 32.
• If the indexed bit for the number is set to 0, the result will be 0.
• See "Logic and bit

The binary equivalent of decimal 10 is 1010. Getting the bit at index position 4 will
Example
return decimal
value = bit.get(10, 4)
print(value)
Output: 8.000000e+00
bit.getfield
Function Returns a field of bits starting at a given index position.
Usage
value = bit.getfield(value1, index, width)
value1
index
width
value
Remarks • A field of bits is a contiguous group of bits. This function retrieves a field of bits from
value1 starting at the given index position. The index position is the least significant
bit of the retrieved field. The number of bits to return is given by width.
• Prior to retrieving the field of bits, any fractional part of the given number will be truncated
to make it an integer.
• The least significant bit of the given number has an index of 1 and the most significant bit
has an index of 32.

Output: 6.000000e+00
bit.set
Function Sets a bit at a given index position.
Usage
value = bit.set(value1, index)
