<shortdesc>A pure-Python memory-efficient packed representation for bit arrays</shortdesc>
<description>This class presents a pure-Python memory efficient packed representation for bit arrays.


In version 1.4.1, the reset() method now returns 'self' to allow for
cascaded inovocation with the slicing operator.  This version also
removes the discrepancy between the value of the  __copyright__ variable 
in the module and the value of license variable in setup.py.

Version 1.4 supports slice assignment and a reset method that allows
a previously constructed bit vector to be reinitialized to all 0's 
or all 1's.  The code was also cleaned up with pychecker for this version.

The class supports the following operators/methods:
      
          __getitem__

          __setitem__

          __len__

          __getslice__

          __str__

          __iter__

          __contains__

          __int__

          __add__

          __eq__, __ne__, __lt__, __le__, __gt__, __ge__
          

          '|'  for bitwise or

          '&amp;'  for bitwise and

          '^'  for bitwise xor

          '~'  for bitwise inversion

          '&lt;&lt;' for circular shift to the left

          '&gt;&gt;' for circular shift to the right

          '+'  for concatenation

          intValue(), __int__  for returning the integer value 

          divide_into_two

          permute

          unpermute

          pad_from_left

          pad_from_right

          read_bits_from_file

          write_to_file

          read_bits_from_fileobject

          write_bits_to_fileobject

          slice assignment

          reset</description>
