.SH NAME
bitops \- operations on bit strings
.SH DESCRIPTION
These procedures perform operations on characters strings of zeros and
ones (`bit strings')
.SH SYNOPSIS
.nf
.ta 1.5i
\*Mand(b1,b2)\fR	logical `and' of \*Mb1\fR and \*Mb2\fR
\*Mbitstring(i)\fR	convert integer \*Mi\fR to bit string
\*Mbsum(b1,b2)\fR	arithmetic sum of \*Mb1\fR and \*Mb2\fR (used by other procedures)
\*Mdecimal(b)\fR	convert \*Mb\fR to integer
\*Mexor(b1,b2)\fR	`exclusive-or' of \*Mb1\fR and \*Mb2\fR
\*Mneg(b)\fR	negation of \*Mb\fR
\*Mor(b1,b2)\fR	logical `or' of \*Mb1\fR and \*Mb2\fR
.SH NOTE
If \*Mi\fR in \*Mbitstring(i)\fR is negative, the value produced is
the corresponding unsigned 32-bit bit string.
.SH BUGS
Integer values that exceed those allowable in Icon may produce bogus
results or spurious diagnostics.
