Ao.Bits

Ao.Bits

The Ao.Bits namespace contains a single static class with extension methods that get or set, respectively, bits of integer values.

Get bits

var a = 0x12345678U;

var a3 = a.GetBits(24, 8);
var a2 = a.GetBits(16, 8);
var a1 = a.GetBits( 8, 8);
var a0 = a.GetBits( 0, 8);

Console.WriteLine("{0:X2}", a3);
Console.WriteLine("{0:X2}", a2);
Console.WriteLine("{0:X2}", a1);
Console.WriteLine("{0:X2}", a0);

Set bits

var a = 0U;

a.SetBits(24, 8, 0x87U);
a.SetBits(16, 8, 0x65U);
a.SetBits( 8, 8, 0x43U);
a.SetBits( 0, 8, 0x21U);

Console.WriteLine("{0:X8}", a);
