BitSet

BitSet

BitSet ()

Creates a new bit set. All bits are initially false.

BitSet

BitSet (int nbits)

Creates a bit set whose initial size is large enough to explicitly represent bits with indices in the range 0 through nbits-1. All bits are initially false.

and

void and (BitSet set)

Performs a logical AND of this target bit set with the argument bit set. This bit set is modified so that each bit in it has the value true if and only if it both initially had the value true and the corresponding bit in the bit set argument also had the value true.

andNot

void andNot (BitSet set)

Clears all of the bits in this BitSet whose corresponding bit is set in the specified BitSet.

cardinality

int cardinality ()

Returns the number of bits set to true in this BitSet.

clear

void clear (int fromIndex, 
                int toIndex)

Sets the bits from the specified fromIndex (inclusive) to the specified toIndex (exclusive) to false.

clear

void clear (int bitIndex)

Sets the bit specified by the index to false.

clear

void clear ()

Sets all of the bits in this BitSet to false.

clone

Object clone ()

Cloning this BitSet produces a new BitSet that is equal to it. The clone of the bit set is another bit set that has exactly the same bits set to true as this bit set.

equals

boolean equals (Object obj)

Compares this object against the specified object. The result is true if and only if the argument is not null and is a Bitset object that has exactly the same set of bits set to true as this bit set. That is, for every nonnegative int index k,

((BitSet)obj).get(k) == this.get(k)

flip

void flip (int bitIndex)

Sets the bit at the specified index to the complement of its current value.

flip

void flip (int fromIndex, 
                int toIndex)

Sets each bit from the specified fromIndex (inclusive) to the specified toIndex (exclusive) to the complement of its current value.

get

boolean get (int bitIndex)

Returns the value of the bit with the specified index. The value is true if the bit with the index bitIndex is currently set in this BitSet; otherwise, the result is false.

get

BitSet get (int fromIndex, 
                int toIndex)

Returns a new BitSet composed of bits from this BitSet from fromIndex (inclusive) to toIndex (exclusive).

hashCode

int hashCode ()

Returns the hash code value for this bit set. The hash code depends only on which bits are set within this BitSet.

The hash code is defined to be the result of the following calculation:

 public int hashCode() {
     long h = 1234;
     long[] words = toLongArray();
     for (int i = words.length; --i >= 0; )
         h ^= words[i] * (i + 1);
     return (int)((h >> 32) ^ h);
 }

intersects

boolean intersects (BitSet set)

Returns true if the specified BitSet has any bits set to true that are also set to true in this BitSet.

isEmpty

boolean isEmpty ()

Returns true if this BitSet contains no bits that are set to true.

length

int length ()

Returns the "logical size" of this BitSet: the index of the highest set bit in the BitSet plus one. Returns zero if the BitSet contains no set bits.

nextClearBit

int nextClearBit (int fromIndex)

Returns the index of the first bit that is set to false that occurs on or after the specified starting index.

nextSetBit

int nextSetBit (int fromIndex)

Returns the index of the first bit that is set to true that occurs on or after the specified starting index. If no such bit exists then -1 is returned.

To iterate over the true bits in a BitSet, use the following loop:

 for (int i = bs.nextSetBit(0); i >= 0; i = bs.nextSetBit(i+1)) {
     // operate on index i here
 }

or

void or (BitSet set)

Performs a logical OR of this bit set with the bit set argument. This bit set is modified so that a bit in it has the value true if and only if it either already had the value true or the corresponding bit in the bit set argument has the value true.

previousClearBit

int previousClearBit (int fromIndex)

Returns the index of the nearest bit that is set to false that occurs on or before the specified starting index. If no such bit exists, or if -1 is given as the starting index, then -1 is returned.

previousSetBit

int previousSetBit (int fromIndex)

Returns the index of the nearest bit that is set to true that occurs on or before the specified starting index. If no such bit exists, or if -1 is given as the starting index, then -1 is returned.

To iterate over the true bits in a BitSet, use the following loop:

 for (int i = bs.length(); (i = bs.previousSetBit(i-1)) >= 0; ) {
     // operate on index i here
 }

set

void set (int fromIndex, 
                int toIndex, 
                boolean value)

Sets the bits from the specified fromIndex (inclusive) to the specified toIndex (exclusive) to the specified value.

set

void set (int fromIndex, 
                int toIndex)

Sets the bits from the specified fromIndex (inclusive) to the specified toIndex (exclusive) to true.

set

void set (int bitIndex)

Sets the bit at the specified index to true.

set

void set (int bitIndex, 
                boolean value)

Sets the bit at the specified index to the specified value.

size

int size ()

Returns the number of bits of space actually in use by this BitSet to represent bit values. The maximum element in the set is the size - 1st element.

stream

IntStream stream ()

Returns a stream of indices for which this BitSet contains a bit in the set state. The indices are returned in order, from lowest to highest. The size of the stream is the number of bits in the set state, equal to the value returned by the cardinality() method.

The bit set must remain constant during the execution of the terminal stream operation. Otherwise, the result of the terminal stream operation is undefined.

toByteArray

byte[] toByteArray ()

Returns a new byte array containing all the bits in this bit set.

More precisely, if
byte[] bytes = s.toByteArray();
then bytes.length == (s.length()+7)/8 and
s.get(n) == ((bytes[n/8] & (1<<(n%8))) != 0)
for all n < 8 * bytes.length.

toLongArray

long[] toLongArray ()

Returns a new long array containing all the bits in this bit set.

More precisely, if
long[] longs = s.toLongArray();
then longs.length == (s.length()+63)/64 and
s.get(n) == ((longs[n/64] & (1L<<(n%64))) != 0)
for all n < 64 * longs.length.

toString

String toString ()

Returns a string representation of this bit set. For every index for which this BitSet contains a bit in the set state, the decimal representation of that index is included in the result. Such indices are listed in order from lowest to highest, separated by ", " (a comma and a space) and surrounded by braces, resulting in the usual mathematical notation for a set of integers.

Example:

 BitSet drPepper = new BitSet();

 drPepper.set(2);

 drPepper.set(4);
 drPepper.set(10);

valueOf

BitSet valueOf (long[] longs)

Returns a new bit set containing all the bits in the given long array.

More precisely,
BitSet.valueOf(longs).get(n) == ((longs[n/64] & (1L<<(n%64))) != 0)
for all n < 64 * longs.length.

This method is equivalent to BitSet.valueOf(LongBuffer.wrap(longs)).

valueOf

BitSet valueOf (byte[] bytes)

Returns a new bit set containing all the bits in the given byte array.

More precisely,
BitSet.valueOf(bytes).get(n) == ((bytes[n/8] & (1<<(n%8))) != 0)
for all n < 8 * bytes.length.

This method is equivalent to BitSet.valueOf(ByteBuffer.wrap(bytes)).

valueOf

BitSet valueOf (ByteBuffer bb)

Returns a new bit set containing all the bits in the given byte buffer between its position and limit.

More precisely,
BitSet.valueOf(bb).get(n) == ((bb.get(bb.position()+n/8) & (1<<(n%8))) != 0)
for all n < 8 * bb.remaining().

The byte buffer is not modified by this method, and no reference to the buffer is retained by the bit set.

valueOf

BitSet valueOf (LongBuffer lb)

Returns a new bit set containing all the bits in the given long buffer between its position and limit.

More precisely,
BitSet.valueOf(lb).get(n) == ((lb.get(lb.position()+n/64) & (1L<<(n%64))) != 0)
for all n < 64 * lb.remaining().

The long buffer is not modified by this method, and no reference to the buffer is retained by the bit set.

xor

void xor (BitSet set)

Performs a logical XOR of this bit set with the bit set argument. This bit set is modified so that a bit in it has the value true if and only if one of the following statements holds:

• The bit initially has the value true, and the corresponding bit in the argument has the value false.
• The bit initially has the value false, and the corresponding bit in the argument has the value true.
