| # Bit View Adapters |
| |
| This module provides extension traits that view ordinary memory as |
| bit-addressable. |
| |
| The [`&BitSlice`][0] type is a reference view over memory managed elsewhere. The |
| inherent constructors are awkward to call, as they require function syntax and |
| a redundant type argument (the `T: BitStore` parameter is already known by the |
| data being viewed). As an alternative, the [`BitView`] trait provides methods |
| on `BitStore` scalars and arrays that are more convenient to create `BitSlice` |
| reference views. |
| |
| Additionally, [`BitViewSized`], [`AsBits`], and [`AsMutBits`] inform the type |
| system about types that can be used as [`BitArray`] storage, immutably viewed as |
| bits, or mutably viewed as bits, respectively. |
