# Quickstart
|
||
|
|
||
|
`bitfield` is a module for
|
||
|
manipulating arrays of bits, i.e. series of zeroes and ones spread across an
|
||
|
array of storage units (unsigned 32-bit integers).
|
||
|
|
||
|
## BitField structure
|
||
|
|
||
|
Bit arrays are stored in data structures called 'BitField'. The structure is
|
||
|
'opaque', i.e. its internals are not available to the end user. This module
|
||
|
provides API (functions and methods) for accessing and modifying bit arrays.
