Bit.get() - Keithley 708B Reference Manual

Section 7: Command reference
Details
Any fractional part of value is truncated to make it an integer. The returned result is also an integer.
The least significant bit of value is at index position 1; the most significant bit is at index position 32.
Example
myResult = bit.clear(15, 2)
print(myResult)

Logical operators
bit.get()
This function retrieves the weighted value of a bit at a specified index position.
Type TSP-Link accessible
Function No
Usage
result = bit.get(value, index)
result
value
index
Details
This function returns the value of the bit in value at index. This is the same as returning value with all other
bits set to zero (0).
The least significant bit value is at index position 1; the most significant bit is at index position 32.
If the indexed bit for the number is set to zero (0), the result will be zero (0).
Example
myResult = bit.get(10, 4)
print(myResult)

The binary equivalent of decimal 15 is 1111. If you
clear the bit at index position 2, the returned
decimal value is 13 (binary 1101).
Output: 1.3000000e+01
Where saved Default value
The binary equivalent of decimal 10 is 1010. If you
get the bit at index position 4, the returned decimal
value is 8.
Output: 8.0000000e+00
