panda3d.core.BitArray¶

class BitArray¶

A dynamic array with an unlimited number of bits.

This is similar to a BitMask, except it appears to contain an infinite number of bits. You can use it very much as you would use a BitMask.

Inheritance diagram

__init__() → None¶

__init__(param0: BitArray) → None

__init__(init_value: WordType) → None

__init__(from: SparseArray) → None

static allOff() → BitArray¶

Returns a BitArray whose bits are all off.

Return type: BitArray

static allOn() → BitArray¶

Returns a BitArray with an infinite array of bits, all on.

Return type: BitArray

static bit(index: int) → BitArray¶

Returns a BitArray with only the indicated bit on.

Return type: BitArray

clear() → None¶: Sets all the bits in the BitArray off.

clearBit(index: int) → None¶: Sets the nth bit off. If n >= getNumBits(), this automatically extends the array.

clearRange(low_bit: int, size: int) → None¶: Sets the indicated range of bits off.

compareTo(other: BitArray) → int¶: Returns a number less than zero if this BitArray sorts before the indicated other BitArray, greater than zero if it sorts after, or 0 if they are equivalent. This is based on the same ordering defined by operator <.

extract(low_bit: int, size: int) → WordType¶

Returns a word that represents only the indicated range of bits within this BitArray, shifted to the least-significant position. size must be <= getNumBitsPerWord().

Return type: WordType

getBit(index: int) → bool¶: Returns true if the nth bit is set, false if it is cleared. It is valid for n to increase beyond getNumBits(), but the return value getNumBits() will always be the same.

static getClassType() → TypeHandle¶

Return type: TypeHandle

getHighestBits() → bool¶: Returns true if the infinite set of bits beyond getNumBits() are all on, or false of they are all off.

getHighestOffBit() → int¶: Returns the index of the highest 0 bit in the array. Returns -1 if there are no 0 bits or if there an infinite number of 1 bits.

getHighestOnBit() → int¶: Returns the index of the highest 1 bit in the array. Returns -1 if there are no 1 bits or if there an infinite number of 1 bits.

getLowestOffBit() → int¶: Returns the index of the lowest 0 bit in the array. Returns -1 if there are no 0 bits.

getLowestOnBit() → int¶: Returns the index of the lowest 1 bit in the array. Returns -1 if there are no 1 bits.

static getMaxNumBits() → int¶

getNextHigherDifferentBit(low_bit: int) → int¶

Returns the index of the next bit in the array, above low_bit, whose value is different that the value of low_bit. Returns low_bit again if all bits higher than low_bit have the same value.

This can be used to quickly iterate through all of the bits in the array.

getNumBits() → size_t¶

Returns the current number of possibly different bits in this array. There are actually an infinite number of bits, but every bit higher than this bit will have the same value, either 0 or 1 (see getHighestBits()).

This number may grow and/or shrink automatically as needed.

Return type: size_t

static getNumBitsPerWord() → int¶

getNumOffBits() → int¶: Returns the number of bits that are set to 0 in the array. Returns -1 if there are an infinite number of 0 bits.

getNumOnBits() → int¶: Returns the number of bits that are set to 1 in the array. Returns -1 if there are an infinite number of 1 bits.

getNumWords() → size_t¶

Returns the number of possibly-unique words stored in the array.

Return type: size_t

getWord(n: size_t) → MaskType¶

Returns the nth word in the array. It is valid for n to be greater than getNumWords(), but the return value beyond getNumWords() will always be the same.

Return type: MaskType

hasAllOf(low_bit: int, size: int) → bool¶: Returns true if all bits in the indicated range are set, false otherwise.

hasAnyOf(low_bit: int, size: int) → bool¶: Returns true if any bit in the indicated range is set, false otherwise.

hasBitsInCommon(other: BitArray) → bool¶

Returns true if this BitArray has any “one” bits in common with the other one, false otherwise.

This is equivalent to (array & other) != 0, but may be faster.

static hasMaxNumBits() → bool¶

invertInPlace() → None¶: Inverts all the bits in the BitArray. This is equivalent to array = ~array.

isAllOn() → bool¶: Returns true if the entire bitmask is one, false otherwise.

isZero() → bool¶: Returns true if the entire bitmask is zero, false otherwise.

static lowerOn(on_bits: int) → BitArray¶

Returns a BitArray whose lower on_bits bits are on.

Return type: BitArray

operator(shift: int) → BitArray¶

Return type: BitArray

operator(shift: int) → BitArray¶

Return type: BitArray

output(out: ostream) → None¶: Writes the :class:`~BitArray` out as a hex number. For a :class:`~BitArray`, this is always the same as outputHex(); it’s too confusing for the output format to change back and forth at runtime.

outputBinary(out: ostream, spaces_every: int) → None¶: Writes the BitArray out as a binary number, with spaces every four bits.

outputHex(out: ostream, spaces_every: int) → None¶: Writes the BitArray out as a hexadecimal number, with spaces every four digits.

static range(low_bit: int, size: int) → BitArray¶

Returns a BitArray whose size bits, beginning at low_bit, are on.

Return type: BitArray

setBit(index: int) → None¶: Sets the nth bit on. If n >= getNumBits(), this automatically extends the array.

setBitTo(index: int, value: bool) → None¶: Sets the nth bit either on or off, according to the indicated bool value.

setRange(low_bit: int, size: int) → None¶: Sets the indicated range of bits on.

setRangeTo(value: bool, low_bit: int, size: int) → None¶: Sets the indicated range of bits to either on or off.

setWord(n: size_t, value: WordType) → None¶: Replaces the nth word in the array. If n >= getNumWords(), this automatically extends the array.

store(value: WordType, low_bit: int, size: int) → None¶: Stores the indicated word into the indicated range of bits with this BitArray.

write(out: ostream, indent_level: int) → None¶: Writes the BitArray out as a binary or a hex number, according to the number of bits.
