Function `std.bitmanip.BitArray.toString`

Return a string representation of this BitArray.


						
				void toString(W)
				(
				

				  ref W sink,
				

				  scope const ref FormatSpec!char fmt
				

				) const
				

				if (isOutputRange!(W, char));

Two format specifiers are supported:

%s which prints the bits as an array, and

%b which prints the bits as 8-bit byte packets

separated with an underscore.

Parameters

Name	Description
sink	A `char` accepting output range.
fmt	A `FormatSpec` which controls how the data is displayed.

Example

import std.format : format;

auto b = BitArray([0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1]);

auto s1 = format("%s", b);
writeln(s1); // "[0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1]"

auto s2 = format("%b", b);
writeln(s2); // "00001111_00001111"
